description | The goal was to examine the relationship between the number of psychology courses students have taken and their perceptions of psychology as a science. Additionally, differences in perceptions of psychology among psychology, education, and natural science majors were examined.

No significant differences in overall perceptions of psychology emerged among students in the three majors. |
