Psychomythics

Reviews / Votes

"Uttal raises very important questions and considers issues that are important if we are to avoid or eliminate the myths that plague psychology. Uttal accurately characterizes his book as 'iconoclastic'. And it is densely packed, with critical issues and questions being raised or discussed on every page."
-Skeptical Inquirer

"...Uttal suggests that to explain behavior one cannot not posit entities in the head until one has exhausted regularities in the information available to the head. Although some of the material is intrinsically complex, Uttal writes clearly."
-CHOICE

"...Uttal has written an important book that deserves to be read. He raises many interesting questions and identifies in a transparent manner a host of possible methodological and conceptual pitfalls of psychological research, of which any cognitive scientist should be aware. It invites researchers to be ever critical on one's background assumptions and choice of research methods."
