As much as I love my psych text book, I found this book to be very helpful as a Cliff Notes-type supplement. It is concise and easy to read, and the CD that goes along with it works in my Mac and is totally awesome! You can go through pre and post test questions on line, just like within the chapters, as well as check out some NCLEX stuff. All of this was very helpful for exams and just plain learning.

Love it and highly recommend it for supplementing your studies!!

I love the Reviews and Rationales series of books and highly recommend them for all nursing students. After I go through my notes from class and the textbook, I use this book for review. It helps sum up all of the millions of pieces of information I have assimilated into one concise source. The review questions have proven to be extremely helpful in studying for exams as well. Similiar content questions have even appeared on our nursing school exams! I love the fact that they give you the rationale behind the answer and tell you how to reason your way to the answer if you are unsure. Each chapter has 20 questions, and then there are 30 more for each chapter on the enclosed CD. They are great for NCLEX prep.

I used this book for test reviews although I wish they had put more questions in it, I found that the rationales helped a great deal when figuring out what I got wrong and why I got it wrong. I would recommend this book to any nursing student that was doing the Psy rotations as a good test study aid.

These books are great. They outline everything without all of the fluff. The answers to the questions tell you which words to look for so you know how to answer those tricky Nursing test questions. They give you the rationales for the right AND wrong answers.

Psych is already hard enough, why stress yourself out more than you have to?! This book offers pre- and post tests, all with different questions, and gives you the main points you have to know. PLUS, if you're lucky enough to buy it with the CD included, you'll get not only the questions in the book, but a bit more at that. One thing I learned with psych class is to take notes of example story citations when the instructor gives them (helps differentiate the terms), then also hit up as many NCLEX-style psych questions as possible. This book helped me pass the class in very good standing.

This book is extremely helpful! I have every one that Mary Ann Hogan has wrote. I recommend all nursing students to get this book.

I loved this book, it was a great study tool.... had i gotten it before the first test I would have made an A on the class. I would definetly recommend it!

The best book to help any nursing student to thrive in nursing!!! Pretests, posttests nursing plans just cant beat this resource! The book is in the best condition possible, the CD was unopened, the only thing missing it wasnt shrink wrapped outside of that its brand new! And thank you amazon I ordered this book yesterday at 3:45 and it was delivered at 9:30 the next morning

This book is really great! I was almost failing psychiatric nursing so I bought this book. The book helped me tremendously since it brought my GPA for the course up a letter grade!

Practice Practice Practice Nclex style questions. I love that they give the rationale for the right and wrong answers and they breakdown every topic very well. A must!
