Psychology: Themes and Variations
Welcome to the sixth Canadian edition of Psychology: Themes and Variations. Not only has this book been extensively updated and revised, but we have man- aged to do all of this while under the restrictions produced by the COVID-19 pandemic. We hope that you and yours emerged from that pandemic healthy and well. You will see in the text that follows that we have integrated some of what we know about the pandemic and the stresses it elicited to illustrate both how we were challenged by it and how we evi- denced considerable resilience.
A good textbook must evolve with the field of inquiry it covers, as well as new directions in higher education. We have updated and revised this edi- tion of the text extensively to reflect the consider- able recent and exciting changes and findings in the field. We have included references to over 1000 new articles and scholarly works. We have revised our text not only to reflect recent changes in psychology, but have done so with a Canadian context in mind. As just one example, we have included new data, research, and discussion reflecting the experiences of Indigenous Peoples, including the intergenerational trauma experienced by Indigenous Peoples as a result of, among other things, the Sixties Scoop and the residential school system in Canada.
