| dc.description.abstract | The purpose of this study was to investigate undergraduate
students’ beliefs about myths in psychology. We hypothesized that most college students would be able
to discern myths from research-supported statements.
However, we did believe students would endorse some
myths as true, especially those that had long histories of
exposure via the mass media, parents, and peers (e.g.,
school homicides are on the rise, low self-esteem is a
major source of psychological problems; Furnham &
Hughes, 2014). | en_US |
