Social Beings: Core Motives in Social Psychology 4E 4th Edition by Fiske (Englis

Description: FREE SHIPPING UK WIDE Social Beings by Fiske It is a nearly universal truth that people need people; humans have adapted to life with other humans, and the interactions and relationships that result are the most relevant adaptation environment. This book explores the core motives and goals that shape these interactions with others, with the self, and collectively as a group; in other words, "Why do people do what they do?" A brief overview of the fields unifying themes—belonging, understanding, controlling, enhancing self, and trusting—gives way to a detailed exploration of the human condition as well as the techniques used to study and understand it. By delving into the motivations behind attraction, helping, bias, persuasion, aggression, and more, this book helps students grasp the complex interplay of internal and external cues and influences that inform every interaction. An emphasis on real-world applications relates social psychology principles to everyday life, and this latest revision has been updated with the most recent research and trends to provide an accurate picture of the state of the field. Blending traditional topics with new developments in an informal, readable style makes this the ideal text to ignite students deeper interest and full engagement with social psychology concepts. FORMAT Paperback LANGUAGE English CONDITION Brand New Author Biography Susan T. Fiske is Eugene Higgins Professor, Psychology and Public Affairs, Princeton University (Ph.D., Harvard University; honorary doctorates, Université Catholique de LouvainlaNeuve, Belgium; Universiteit Leiden, the Netherlands; Universität Basel, Switzerland; Universidad de Granada, Spain). She investigates social cognition, especially cognitive stereotypes and emotional prejudices, at cultural, interpersonal, and neural levels. Author of about 350 articles and chapters, she is most known for theories and research on how people think about each other: the continuum model of impression formation, the powerascontrol theory, the ambivalent sexism theory, and the stereotype content model (SCM). The U.S. Supreme Court cited her genderbias testimony, and she testified before President Clintons Race Initiative Advisory Board. These influenced her edited volume, Beyond Common Sense: Psychological Science in the Courtroom. Currently an editor of the Annual Review of Psychology, PNAS, Policy Insights from Behavioral and Brain Sciences, and Handbook of Social Psychology, she has written the upperlevel text Social Cognition: From Brains to Culture (4/e). She also wrote The Human Brand: How We Relate to People, Products, and Companies, which applies her models to how people perceive corporations. Her generalinterest book, funded by a Guggenheim and the Russell Sage Foundation, is Envy Up and Scorn Down: How Status Divides Us. She has been elected to the National Academy of Sciences, the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, and the American Philosophical Society. She has served as President of the Association for Psychological Science (APS) and President of the Federation of Associations in Behavioral and Brain Sciences, as well as its FABBS Foundation. Because it takes a village, her graduate students and lab alumni conspired for her to win Princetons Mentoring Award. She is grateful to be the only person so far to have won the three APS Awards: James (basic science), Cattell (applied science), and Mentoring.
