| Synopsis: |
Not long ago, social psychology was a small field consisting of creative, energetic researchers bent on trying to study a few vexing problems in normal adult human behaviour with rigorous scientific methods. In a few short decades, the field has blossomed into a major intellectual force, with thousands of researchers worldwide exploring a stunningly diverse set of fascinating phenomena with an impressive arsenal of research methods and ever-more carefully honed theories. The Encyclopedia of Social Psychology is the first resource to present state-of-the-art research and ready-to-use facts from this fascinating field. These two volumes include more than 600 entries chosen by a diverse team of experts to comprise an exhaustive list of the most important concepts. The Encyclopedia is written for students who may be encountering concepts such as social loafing, deindividuation, base rate fallacy, ego depletion and self-handicapping for the first time and want a simple, clear, jargon-free explanation of what they mean.Key Themes" Action Control" Antisocial Behaviors" Attitude" Culture" Emotions" Evolution" Groups" Health " History" Influence" Interpersonal Relationships" Judgment and Decision Making" Methods" Personality" Prejudice" Problem Behaviors" Prosocial Behaviors" Self" Social Cognition" Subdisciplines |
