Dynamical Social Psychology

Résumé du livre

This text uses concepts and tools to illuminate the processes by which individuals, groups and societies evolve and change in a systemic, self- sustaining manner, at times seemingly independent of external influence. Readers can learn how the approach facilitates predictions and insights into such social psychological phenomena as attitudes, social judgement, goal-directed behaviour, attraction and relationships. Featuring charts and figures derived from research and computer simulations, the volume contains classic and contemporary theories of social psychology.
