APA Concise Dictionary of Psychology (2008)

The release of the APA Dictionary ofPsychology in 2006 was a milestone for the American Psychological Association (APA) and its books pubhshing arm, APA Books. The culmination of some ten years of research and lexicographic activity, the work has received strong critical endorsement from both the publishing and reference library communities. Rapid sales, moreover, resulted in the need for a large-scale second printing within a year of initial release.

In recognition that a more focused version would have additional appeal to the everincreasing number of thoughtful readers from all walks of hfe who are interested in the knowledge that the field brings to the problems of everyday living, APA Books is pleased to release this APA Concise Dictionary of Psychology.

In the context of shortening the parent dictionary, our editorial process has relied first and foremost on reducing the number of entries: Whereas the parent dictionary contains definitions for some 25,000 terms, the APA Concise Dictionary covers some 10,000. This significant reduction was accomplished largely by limiting coverage in several categories that may be thought of as somewhat too technical or too specialized to be of central interest to a general reader.
