Название: The Psychology of Strategic Terrorism: Public and Government Responses to Attack
Автор: Ben Sheppard
Издательство: Routledge
Год: 2008
Формат: pdf
Страниц: 263
Размер: 947 kB
Язык: English
This new volume explores terrorism and strategic terror, examining how the public responds to terrorist attacks, and what authorities can do in such situations. The book uses a unique interdisciplinary approach, which combines the behavioural sciences and international relations, in order to further the understanding of the 'terror' generated by strategic terror. The work examines five contemporary case studies of the psychological and behavioural effects of strategic terror, from either terrorist attacks or aerial bombardment. It also looks at how risk-communication and public-health strategies can amplify or reduce psychological and behavioural responses, and considers whether behavioural effects translate into political effects, and what governments can do to relieve this. Ultimately, the study argues that the public is not prone to panic, but can change their behaviours to reduce their perceived risk of being exposed to a terrorist attack. This book will be of much interest to students of terrorism studies, homeland security, social psychology and politics in general.

Название: Social Psychology of Consumer Behavior
Автор: Michaela Wanke
Издательство: Psychology Press
Год: 2008
Формат: pdf
Страниц: 408
Размер: 7 MB
Язык: English
The Social Psychology of Consumer Behavior brings together the most promising and theoretically fruitful research developments by internationally renowned scholars, whose work is at the cutting edge of research. Experts from both fields – social psychology and consumer behavior – provide an informed, up-to-date overview, from an original integrative perspective.The aim of this volume is two-fold. On the one hand, the application of social psychology to consumer behavior is meant to broaden the horizon of social psychologists. On the other hand, students and researchers of consumer behavior will be offered an advanced account of relevant theories tailored to their interests. While the range of topics is rather broad – including the construal of judgments and decisions, affective and cognitive feelings, social and media influences, and goals and self-regulation – each chapter is focused on one specific theoretical or methodological perspective and thereby gives a comprehensive and penetrative account of the relevant issues and the respective research.The volume provides an invaluable resource to students, researchers, and instructors in social psychology, consumer psychology, consumer behavior, and marketing.

Levine emphasizes the goals of Buddhism and Yoga and the methods they employ to achieve those goals. This book is divided into four sections. | |

Год: 2004
Формат: pdf

In clear and accessible language, Keith Oatley examines key topics such as emotional intelligence, emotion and the brain, and emotional disorders. Throughout, he interweaves three themes: the changes that emotions have undergone from the past to the present, the extent to which we are able to control our emotions, and the ways in which emotions help us discern the deeper layers of ourselves and our relationships.

Название: Psychology of Language: A Critical Introduction
Автор: Dr Michael Forrester
Издательство: Sage Publications Ltd
Год: 1996
Формат: pdf
Страниц: 225
Размер: 6 MB
Язык: English
This comprehensive textbook brings together diverse themes on the psychology of language in an accessible and integrated way. Rather than covering only the formal-structural aspects of language, Michael A Forrester provides a broad view of the study of language across various perspectives, focusing throughout on interesting relationships between language and human psychological processes.Psychology of Language provides a clear introduction to key topics from language structure and processing, semantics and cognitive science, to conversation analysis, reading and writing, power relations in communication and postmodern psychology. The book explores language by considering three themes:· Thinking - the cognitive processes of self-communication. · Talk - where the emphasis is on everyday conversational behaviour. · Text - including the study of reading and writing. A coherent framework is developed by looking at topics which link the themes together, clearly demonstrating the relationship between language and communication processes. The text will be invaluable to students on all courses addressing psychology and language, particularly in areas such as cognitive and social psychology and psycholinguistics.

Название: The Gene Illusion - Genetic Research in Psychiatry and Psychology Under the Microscope
Автор: Jay Joseph
Издательство: Algora Publishing
Год: 2004
Формат: pdf
Страниц: 417
Размер: 4 MB
Язык: English
What are the forces shaping who we are, how we live, and how we act? Are we shaped primarily by our environment, or by our genes? These very old questions form the basis of the ''nature-nurture'' debate. Increasingly, we are told that research has confirmed the importance of genetic factors influencing psychiatric disorders, personality, intelligence, sexual orientation, criminality, and so on. Jay Joseph’s timely, challenging book provides a much-needed critical appraisal of the evidence cited in support of genetic theories. His book shows that, far from establishing the importance of genes, family, twin and adoption research has been plagued by researcher bias, unsound methodology, and a reliance on unsupported theoretical assumptions. | |

Название: The Psychology of Graphic Images: Seeing, Drawing, Communicating
Автор: Manfredo Massironi, Translated by N Bruno
Издательство: Psychology Press
Год: 2001
Формат: pdf
Страниц: 330
Размер: 58 MB
Язык: Italian
This book explores the nature of one of the most ancient tools for nonverbal communication: drawings. They are naturally adaptable enough to meet an incredibly wide range of communication needs. But how exactly do they do their job so well? Avoiding the kinds of aesthetic rankings of different graphic domains so often made by art historians and critics, Manfredo Massironi considers an extensive and representative sample of graphic applications with an open mind. He finds a deep mutuality between the material components of images and the activation of the perceptual and cognitive processes that create and decipher them. | |

Название: Psychology of Decision Making in Economics, Business and Finance
Автор: Klaus P. Hofmann
Издательство: Nova Science Publishers
Год: 2007
Формат: pdf
Страниц: 241
Размер: 2 MB
Язык: English
In a fast-moving world, the necessity of making decisions, and preferably good ones, has become even more difficult. One reason is the variety and number of choices perhaps available which often are not presented or understood. Alternatives are often unclear and complex paths to them confusing and misleading. Thus the process of decision making itself requires analysis on an ongoing basis. Decision making is often made based on cultural factors whereas the best alternative might be quite different. The subject touches ethics aspects as well as psychological considerations. This book presents important research on the psychology of decision making related to economics, business and finance.
