Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This innovative two-volume handbook provides a comprehensive exploration of the major developments of social psychological theories that have taken place over the past half century, culminating in a state of the art overview of the primary theories and models that have been developed in this vast and fascinating field. Authored by leading international experts, each chapter represents a personal and historical narrative of the theory's development including the inspirations, critical junctures, and problem-solving efforts that have effected the choices made in each theory's evolution as well as the impact each has had on the canon of social psychology. Unique to this handbook, these narratives provide a rich background for understanding how theories are created more generally; how they're nurtured and shaped over time: and how through examination we can better understand their unique contribution to society as a whole. The Handbook also illustrates how the various theories contribute to understanding and solving critical social issues and problems. The Handbook of Theories of Social Psychology is an essential resource for researchers and students of social psychology and related disciplines.

Download or read book Self esteem and Interpersonal Attraction Toward Competent and Friendly Persons written by Dorothy Anne Phillips and published by . This book was released on 1974 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It was hypothesized that two characteristics, competence and interpersonal relatedness or friendliness, which have been considered important to self-esteem by twentieth century theorists, would be important determinants of interpersonal attraction when perceived in others. Consequences of self-esteem for attraction to persons vary ing in competence and friendliness were investigated. Predictions were made from three social psychological theories, social comparison theory (Festinger, 1954), balance theory (Heider, 1958), and learning theory (Lott & Lott, 1972). Two experiments were designed to test the predictions. Experi ment I presented written interviews of the stimulus persons in a factorial design with two levels each of competence and friendliness. Experiment II presented adjective traits of stimulus persons in a factorial design with four levels each of competence and friendliness. In both experiments, subjects rated each stimulus person on compe tence, friendliness, how much they liked him and how much they anti cipated he would like them. Subjects rated their own competence and friendliness to yield ratings of perceived similarity between subjects and stimulus persons. Results of both experiments indicated that subjects liked com petent and friendly others more than incompetent and unfriendly others regardless of their own self-esteem level. Contrary to these results, both social comparison theory and balance theory based on sentiment relations predicted that self-esteem would influence inter personal attraction. Social comparison theory was based on the assumption that subjects would perceive similarity between them selves and certain stimulus persons. Since support for predictions from social comparison theory as well as support for the assumptions on which predictions were based was lacking, this theory may predict relations when similarity is more salient. The balance theory- sentiment relations prediction was based on the assumption that sub jects would anticipate more liking from competent and friendly others than from incompetent and unfriendly others. Since support for the predictions from balance theory-sentiment relations was lacking but support for the assumptions was present, this theory was rejected as mediating the relations between self-esteem and interpersonal attrac- ti on. Both balance theory based on unit relations and learning theory based on secondary reinforcement predicted the results on the liking measure. However, support for perceived similarity, which was the basis of the balance theory-unit relations prediction, was not found and this theory was not supported. Support for the assumption that competence and friendliness develop secondary reinforcing properties, which was the basis of the predictions from learning theory, was indirect and the theory was tentatively accepted. Results of these experiments are consistent with an hypothesis (Berscheid & Walster, 1969) that only when the stimulus person has evaluated the perceiver will self-esteem affect interpersonal attrac tion. An hypothesis that the perceiver need only be in a position to evaluate was discussed.

Download or read book Self Disclosure written by Valerian J. Derlaga and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-11-11 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Decisions about self-disclosure-whether to reveal one's thoughts, feel ings, or past experiences to another person, or the level of intimacy of such disclosure-are part of the everyday life of most persons. The nature of the decisions that a person makes will have an impact on his or her life. They will determine the kinds of relationships the person has with others; how others perceive him or her; and the degree of self knowledge and awareness that the person possesses. The study of self-disclosure has interested specialists from many disciplines, including personality and social psychologists, clinical and counseling psychologists, and communications researchers. Our book brings together the work of experts from these various disciplines with the hope that knowledge about work being done on self-disclosure in related disciplines will be increased. A strong emphasis in each of the chapters is theory development and the integration of ideas about self-disclosure. The book's chapters explore three major areas, including the interrelationship of self-disclosure and personality as well as the role of self-disclosure in the development, maintenance, and deterioration of personal relationships, and the con tribution of self-disclosure to psychotherapy, marital therapy, and counseling.

It bridges the gap between parallel research in primatology and studies of humans, and highlights both common principles and aspects of human uniqueness, with respect to cooperative behaviour.
Download or read book The Psychology of Love written by Michele A. Paludi and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2012-03-09 with total page 977 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From arranged marriages to online dating, this four-volume work presents everything from personal accounts to empirical evidence to document what creates love in our culture as well as around the world. The field of biology views "love" as a hard-wired mammalian drive, akin to thirst and hunger. In contrast, psychology views love from a social and cultural perspective where our drive to find love—and our responses to it—are highly dependent on societal norms. In The Psychology of Love, esteemed author and educator Michele A. Paludi examines love through all lenses, thereby providing readers a deeper understanding of the ways we can express caring, sensitivity, empathy, and respect toward one another. Each chapter in this comprehensive four-volume work includes a scholarly overview of empirical research and theories about the psychology of love. In addition, individuals' own definitions of love are included. Special attention is paid to accepted standards of love across a variety of cultures, the ways individuals express liking and love across the lifecycle, and patterns in dissolutions of friendships and romantic relationships, making note of gender and race differences.

Download or read book Influence written by Robert B. Cialdini and published by Pearson Scott Foresman. This book was released on 1988 with total page 434 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Influence: Science and Practice is an examination of the psychology of compliance (i.e. uncovering which factors cause a person to say "yes" to another's request) and is written in a narrative style combined with scholarly research. Cialdini combines evidence from experimental work with the techniques and strategies he gathered while working as a salesperson, fundraiser, advertiser, and other positions, inside organizations that commonly use compliance tactics to get us to say "yes". Widely used in graduate and undergraduate psychology and management classes, as well as sold to people operating successfully in the business world, the eagerly awaited revision of Influence reminds the reader of the power of persuasion. Cialdini organizes compliance techniques into six categories based on psychological principles that direct human behavior: reciprocation, consistency, social proof, liking, authority, and scarcity.
