Book The Rationalizing Voter

Download or read book The Rationalizing Voter written by Milton Lodge and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2013-04-22 with total page 301 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Political behavior is the result of innumerable unnoticed forces and conscious deliberation is often a rationalization of automatically triggered feelings and thoughts. Citizens are very sensitive to environmental contextual factors such as the title 'President' preceding 'Obama' in a newspaper headline, upbeat music or patriotic symbols accompanying a campaign ad, or question wording and order in a survey, all of which have their greatest influence when citizens are unaware. This book develops and tests a dual-process theory of political beliefs, attitudes and behavior, claiming that all thinking, feeling, reasoning and doing have an automatic component as well as a conscious deliberative component. The authors are especially interested in the impact of automatic feelings on political judgments and evaluations. This research is based on laboratory experiments, which allow the testing of five basic hypotheses: hot cognition, automaticity, affect transfer, affect contagion and motivated reasoning.

Book The SAGE Encyclopedia of Criminal Psychology

Download or read book The SAGE Encyclopedia of Criminal Psychology written by Robert D. Morgan and published by SAGE Publications. This book was released on 2019-04-25 with total page 3395 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The SAGE Encyclopedia of Criminal Psychology will be a modern, interdisciplinary resource aimed at students and professionals interested in the intersection of psychology (e.g., social, forensic, clinical), criminal justice, sociology, and criminology. The interdisciplinary study of human behavior in legal contexts includes numerous topics on criminal behavior, criminal justice policies and legal process, crime detection and prevention, eyewitness identification, prison life, offender assessment and rehabilitation, risk assessment and management, offender mental health, community reintegration, and juvenile offending. The study of these topics has been increasing continually since the late 1800s, with people trained in many legal professions such as policing, social work, law, academia, mental health, and corrections. This will be a comprehensive work that will provide the most current empirical information on those topics of greatest concern to students who desire to work in these fields. This encyclopedia is a unique reference work that looks at criminal behavior primarily through a scientific lens. With over 500 entries the book brings together top empirically driven researchers and clinicians across multiple fields—psychology, criminology, social work, and sociology—to explore the field.

Book Understanding Rationalization and How It Limits Life

Download or read book Understanding Rationalization and How It Limits Life written by Michael D. Coe and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2014-07-17 with total page 26 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Rationalization - How we miss living life and morph into fear and unhappiness! Rationalization from the psychological position is an excuse or a defense mechanism, where feelings or positions get explained away so that the positions become more palatable than dealing with the reality. It is a way for people to justify not doing or acting in the way a situation would naturally require for true resolution. The rationalized behavior is then made to seem like the proper way of doing something as opposed to the real correct way of handling an issue. This process can cause people to put off doing what is necessary to solve a problem, deal with real feelings, and take appropriate action, and instead, rationalize a different, perhaps inappropriate and ineffective course. It can be intentional or unintentional, but it always seems to be a better and easier way out of a problem, rather than the actual, most appropriate method.

Book Empiricism and the Foundations of Psychology

Download or read book Empiricism and the Foundations of Psychology written by John-Michael Kuczynski and published by John Benjamins Publishing. This book was released on 2012-09-20 with total page 487 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Intended for philosophically minded psychologists and psychologically minded philosophers, this book identifies the ways that psychology has hobbled itself by adhering too strictly to empiricism, this being the doctrine that all knowledge is observation-based. In the first part of this two-part work, we show that empiricism is false. In the second part, we identify the psychology-relevant consequences of this fact. Five of these are of special importance: (i) Whereas some psychopathologies (e.g. obsessive-compulsive disorder) corrupt the activity mediated by one’s psychological architecture, others (e.g. sociopathy) corrupt that architecture itself. (ii) The basic tenets of psychoanalysis are coherent. (iii) All propositional attitudes are beliefs. (iv) Selves are minds that self-evaluate. And: (v) It is by giving our thoughts a perceptible form that we enable ourselves to evaluate them, and it is by expressing ourselves in language and art that we give our thoughts a perceptible form.

Book Macro Cultural Psychology

Download or read book Macro Cultural Psychology written by Carl Ratner and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2011-08-01 with total page 540 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book articulates a bold, new, systematic theory of psychology, culture, and their interrelation. It explains how macro cultural factors -- social institutions, cultural artifacts, and cultural concepts -- are the cornerstones of society and how they form the origins and characteristics of psychological phenomena. This theory is used to explain the diversity of psychological phenomena such as emotions, self, intelligence, sexuality, memory, reasoning, perception, developmental processes, and mental illness. Ratner draws upon Lev Vygotsky's sociocultural psychology, Bronfenbrenner's ecological psychology, as well as work in sociology, anthropology, history, and geography, to explore the political implications and assumptions of psychological theories regarding social policy and reform. The theory outlined here addresses current theoretical and political issues such as agency, realism, objectivity, subjectivism, structuralism, postmodernism, and multiculturalism. In this sense, the book articulates a systematic political philosophy of mind to examine numerous approaches to psychology, including indigenous psychology, cross-cultural psychology, activity theory, discourse analysis, mainstream psychology, and evolutionary psychology.

Book An Introduction to Psychology of Religion

Download or read book An Introduction to Psychology of Religion written by Robert W. Crapps and published by Mercer University Press. This book was released on 1986 with total page 432 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Developed in almost thirty years of classroom experience, this book is designed to introduce students and other readers to the psychological study of religion. Robert W. Crapps deals with the major questions and figures that have dominated the psychological study of religion over the past century, dividing the discussion into four parts. Two chapters in part one suggest the problems and possibilities for the psychological study of religion in light of the nature of religion and the scientific method. Part two sketches the contributions to the study of religion of three intellectual currents in contemporary psychology: psychoanalysis, behaviorism, and humanistic psychology. part three explores the relationship between religion and human development, while part four directs attention to religious lifestyles and that weave differentiated parts of human experience into a cohesive whole. -- Publisher description.
