wireless security

If I want to use WPA-PSK to secure my wireless network, do I just make up a shared key and enter it in for the router and computer(s) I want to connect to the wireless network? or is there more to it then that

That's it. PSK stands for pre-shared key, something that you've shared knowledge of between the wireless infrastructure device (router) and the different nodes (computers/users on the network).
