520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC.
Summary, etc. "Famous psychological experiments-trom rreuas ego to the skinner box—have changed the way science views human behavior. But how do these tests really work? In Psych Experiments, you'll learn how to test out these theories and experiments for yourself... no psychology degree required! Guided by Michael A. Britt, creator of the popular podcast The Psych Files, you can conduct your own experiments when browsing your favorite websites (to test the "curiosity effect"), flipping through advertisements (you'd be surprised how much you're influenced by the color red), and checking out your smartphone (to see whether or not it detracts from your real-life experiences). You'll even figure out how to tell if someone is lying to you!"
