Why don't you use any visual aids? You should know the advantages of visual aids as a psychology scientist.
Dr. Lisa
I don't use visual aids because I don't own the rights to images that can be used here, and if I use someone else's I'd have to get permission and pay royalties (particularly since I make a bit of money off these lectures) and I don't want to have to do that. Which is why in my overview I suggest viewers who are really interested pick up a prior edition of an intro psych book, as all of this will be in there. Or look at images on the Internet. Thanks for watching!
