To confirm awareness of the course and exam revisions, all new and returning AP Psychology teachers need to submit an AP Course Audit form and choose one of these three options for authorization:
Current textbooks adequately address the material needed for the revised AP Psychology course. Textbook requirements have not changed: students should have access to a college-level introductory psychology textbook that has been published in the last 10 years.
Publishers have been informed of the upcoming changes, and they are working to update their materials to align with the revised course so that schools wishing to purchase textbooks aligned to the changes may choose to do so.
The list below represents examples of textbooks that meet the curricular requirements of AP Psychology. The list is not exhaustive and the texts listed should not be regarded as endorsed, authorized, recommended, or approved by College Board. Not using a book from this list does not mean that a course will not receive authorization. Syllabi submitted as part of the AP Course Audit process will be evaluated holistically, with textbooks considered along with supplementary resources to confirm that the course provides students with the content delineated in the curricular requirements of the AP Course Audit.
The current editions of the following textbooks meet the AP Course Audit curricular requirements. Earlier editions of these texts or other textbooks not listed here may meet the AP Course Audit curricular requirements if supplemented with appropriate college-level instructional resources. While every effort is made to keep this list current, it can take a few months for newly published titles and revised editions to be reviewed.
This resource includes the guidelines reviewers use to evaluate syllabi along with three samples of evidence for each requirement. This guide also specifies the level of detail required in the syllabus to receive course authorization.
