Based on the latest syllabus by the Indian Nursing Council, Psychology for Nurses is a text primarily targeted at the students pursuing B.Sc. in nursing. Designed to facilitate and complement the training of a nurse by creating awareness of and interest in psychology, this textbook provides an introduction to key topics such as the biological basis of behavior, perception, learning, memory, communication, intelligence, and aptitude. This book is written in an easy-to-understand and a lucid style, and deals with concepts of motivation, conflicts and their resolution, personality, and life-span development. Separate chapters on attitude, group psychology, psychological assessment, and the role of a nurse have also been included. Several illustrations, figures, tables, and key terms have been provided in the chapters to aid understanding and recapitulation. Review questions and multiple-choice questions are included at the end of each chapter to test the students’ grasp of the concepts learned.
