Psychology

The textbook Psychology, 5th Edition, authored by Lorelle J. Burton, is published by John Wiley & Sons Australia. Designed for higher education, the text introduces foundational concepts across the discipline of psychological science, incorporating content developed for Australian and New Zealand study.

A central thematic focus across the volume is neuroplasticity. Rather than addressing biological adaptability as an isolated subject, the text integrates neuroplasticity discussions throughout each chapter to connect neural processes with broader psychological principles.

To support student comprehension and assessment preparation, the publication incorporates applied learning resources. These materials include video features that present perspectives and professional experiences from practicing psychologists.
