Reviews

"This excellent book covers important topics, but requires an extensive background in computational and mathematical psychology to get the most out of it. " --Gary B Kaniuk, oody's Health Sciences Book Review
"The liberal, and altogether appropriate, use of figures, graphs, and tables increases the overall clarity of the expository writing in all the chapters. These schema headings and graphical organizers and pictorials lend to the instructional value of the Handbook. The result is a clear, richly detailed, and imaginative collection of chapters, each very well written and edited, which describe and introduce contemporary methodological and statistical
approaches to modeling human cognition. This organizing framework works well." --PsycCRITIQUES
