David G. Myers
David Myers received his B.A. in chemistry from Whitworth University, and his psychology Ph.D. from the University of Iowa. He has spent his career at Hope College, Michigan, where he has taught dozens of introductory psychology sections. Hope College students have invited him to be their commencement speaker and voted him “outstanding professor.” His research and writings have been recognized by the Gordon Allport Intergroup Relations Prize, an Honored Scientist award from the Federation of Associations in Behavioral & Brain Sciences, an Award for Distinguished Service on Behalf of Social-Personality Psychology, a Presidential Citation from APA Division 2, election as an American Association for the Advancement of Science Fellow, and three honorary doctorates.
With support from National Science Foundation grants, Myers’ scientific articles have appeared in three dozen scientific periodicals, including Science, American Scientist, Psychological Science, and American Psychologist. In addition to his scholarly and textbook writing, he digests psychological science for the general public. His writings have appeared in four dozen magazines, from Today’s Education to Scientific American. He also has authored six general audience books, including, in 2022, How Do We Know Ourselves? Curiosities and Marvels of the Human Mind. And he blogs about psychology and life at TalkPsych.com.
David Myers has chaired his city’s Human Relations Commission, helped found a thriving assistance center for low-income families, and spoken to hundreds of college, community, and professional groups worldwide. Drawing on his experience of hearing loss, which now includes a cochlear implant, he also has written articles and a book (A Quiet World) about hearing loss, and he is advocating a transformation in U.S. assistive listening technology (see HearingLoop.org). For his leadership, he has received awards from the American Academy of Audiology, the hearing industry, and the Hearing Loss Association of America.
David and Carol Myers met and married while undergraduates, and have raised sons Peter and Andrew, and a daughter, Laura. They have one grandchild, Allie.

He received his bachelor’s degree from St. Olaf College, a master’s degree in social science from the University of Chicago, and a master’s degree and Ph.D. in social psychology from Florida State University. DeWall received the College of Arts and Sciences Outstanding Teaching Award, which recognizes excellence in undergraduate and graduate teaching. The Association for Psychological Science identified DeWall as a “Rising Star” early in his career for “making significant contributions to the field of psychological science.” He has been included in the top 1 percent of all cited scientists in psychology and psychiatry on the Institute for Scientific Information list, according to the Web of Science. DeWall conducts research on close relationships, self-control, aggression, the psychology of religion, and intellectual humility. With funding from the National Institutes of Health, the National Science Foundation, and the John Templeton Foundation, he has published 225 scientific articles and chapters. DeWall’s research awards include the SAGE Young Scholars Award from the Foundation for Personality and Social Psychology, the Young Investigator Award from the International Society for Research on Aggression, and the Early Career Award from the International Society for Self and Identity. His research has been covered by numerous media and entertainment outlets, including Good Morning America, The Wall Street Journal, Newsweek, The Atlantic Monthly, The New York Times, The Los Angeles Times, Harvard Business Review, USA Today, National Public Radio, The Guardian, the BBC, and Netflix. He has lectured nationally and internationally, including in Hong Kong, China, the Netherlands, England, Greece, Hungary, Sweden, Australia, and France.
Nathan is happily married to Alice DeWall and is the proud father of Beverly “Bevy” and Ellis. He also enjoys taking care of the family dog, “Artie.” As an ultramarathon runner, he completed numerous races, including the Badwater 135 in 2017 (dubbed “the World’s toughest foot race”). In his spare time now, he enjoys hiking, attending live concerts, setting up and maintaining aquariums, watching sports, and playing guitar and singing in local rock bands.

Improved Student Preface—Student Success: How to Apply Psychology to Live Your Best Life. When we ask teaching psychologists to share the most important lessons they wish to impart to students, they often tell us they want to teach students to think critically, and to apply psychology to their own lives so that they can live better and be more successful. This brief Student Success preface, which previews relevant resources in the text and in Achieve, helps get students on the right path with sections on
• Thinking Critically and Scientifically,
• Self-Control and Self-Improvement,
• Time Management and Study Tips,
• Social Life (including a new section, Embrace Diversity), and
• Finding Meaning and Pursuing Goals.

Innovative engagement. Enduring retention. The most effective way to explore psychological science, now with even more support for instructors.
With digital content available for the first time in the breakthrough online platform, Achieve, the new edition of Myers and DeWall’s bestseller, Exploring Psychology offers creative ways to help students connect with the course, retain psychology’s key principles, and do better in all their classes, not just psychology. Like all previous editions, the authors combine market-leading currency, fresh teaching ideas, fascinating applications, effective new study tools and technologies, and a compassionate and compelling storytelling voice.
Myers and DeWall base their text on the same guiding principles that made Myers the world’s bestselling introductory psychology author:
- Facilitate understanding by teaching critical thinking, applying principles to students’ lives, and reinforcing learning at every step.
- Demonstrate that psychology is a science by showing the process of inquiry and sharing the field’s most exciting new discoveries.
- Emphasize psychologys big ideas, especially respect for human unity and diversity--what drives us, distinguishes us, unifies us.
With Achieve, our most powerful learning option is also our most affordable. Achieve brings all of the best aspects of the text and digital resources together in one place. Built on best practices in research in psychology and learning science, Achieve provides students with robust tools to succeed in their introductory course, while giving instructors insights into their students understanding and performance.
