Authoritative resource exploring the fundamental theories and concepts in the field of personality psychology
In Personality, psychodynamic, social-cognitive, phenomenological, and trait-theoretic perspectives are presented in an unbiased--yet critical--fashion that encourages students to compare theories, evaluate evidence, analyze data, and form their own conclusions. Thorough historical coverage of the subject is balanced with discussions of the current state of the field, providing a solid understanding of theory and methods as relevant to practice today.
The text provides a comparative learning framework that capitalizes on student intuition to encourage critical thinking and self-exploration and highlights the contributions of neuroscience in advancing all aspects of personality theory and research. Complex ideas are presented in an accessible, easy-to-follow style that directly engages students without oversimplifying critical points. To aid in reader comprehension, the text incorporates case studies to illustrate general concepts through specific examples. As a practical resource, the well qualified author emphasizes major theories over those with little relevance to the modern field.
Some of the theories and topics explored in Personality include:
With an effective pedagogical structure that enhances student interest while strengthening objectivity and critical-thinking skills, Personality is suitable for introductory coursework and also serves as a valuable resource for advanced studies and as a reference for professionals in psychology and related fields.
