Brainmarks: Headquarters for Things that Go Bump in the Night is a companion lab manual to the Psychology of Deception text. It expands on the latest in the neuroscience of transmitter chemistry and interconnected pathways in the brain.
Brainmarks can be adopted as a stand-alone text as an introduction to neuropsychology, or as an enhancement for all courses taught in psychology. A test bank and instructor manual accompanies both upon adoption.
This manual is divided into eight chapters requiring two weeks of study for 16 week-long semesters. Both text and lab manual are highly adaptable to Internet, 2-way video, and hybrid formats as labs are visual tutorials on the brain using YouTube™. Each chapter has the following distinctive features:
- Application & Variations demonstrate thematic application or topical enhancement of chapters.
- Word Scholars as vocabulary tutorials containing vocabulary builders for the academic disciplines of neuropsychology and forensic psychology.
- YouTube™ & a-Half Video/Essay Labs visually enhance the laboratory experience requiring no physical presence for labs.
