Hypothetical Thinking Dual Processes in Reasoning and Judgement

Hypothetical Thinking Dual Processes in Reasoning and Judgement

Hypothetical thought involves the imagination of possibilities and the exploration of their consequences by a process of mental simulation. In this Classic Edition Jonathan St B. T. Evans presents his pioneering hypothetical thinking theory; an integrated theoretical account of a wide range of psychological studies on hypothesis testing reasoning judgement and decision making. Hypothetical thinking theory is built on three key principles and implemented in a version of Evans' well-known heuristic–analytic theory of reasoning. The central claim of this book is that this theory can provide an integrated account of apparently diverse phenomena including confirmation bias in hypothesis testing acceptance of fallacies in deductive reasoning belief biases in reasoning and judgement biases of statistical judgement and numerous characteristic findings in the study of decision making. Featuring a reflective and insightful new introduction to the book this Classic Edition discusses contemporary theory on cognitive biases human rationality and dual-process theories of higher cognition. It will be of great interest to researchers post graduates as well as advanced undergraduate students. | Hypothetical Thinking Dual Processes in Reasoning and Judgement

Principles of Social Psychology Third Edition

Principles of Social Psychology Third Edition

Originally published in 1987 this third edition won praise from students and instructors alike for its challenging no nonsense approach to the field. Thoroughly updated to reflect current research of the time the text retains the qualities that had become its hallmarks: a cognitive approach to the process of socialization and an emphasis on the ideas that give the discipline continuity. It offers clear conceptually integrated discussions of all of the major topics in social psychology from the time. Shaver's focus on the concepts of social psychology provides a framework for students to develop their own applications. The principles of social behavior are presented in the text in the same way they develop in the individual moving from internal processes (social perception self-recognition) to external issues (the environment the law) that influence behavior. Shaver weaves contemporary issues into his treatment of basic theories using examples from everyday situations. His supple writing engages students in the complexity of social behavior and is one reason this title remained one of the most highly regarded texts in the field at the time. | Principles of Social Psychology Third Edition

The Science of Philosophy

The Science of Philosophy

Originally published in 1981 this book was an attempt to bridge the gap between scientists and philosophers by viewing philosophy at least in part through scientific eyes. Professor George is not here concerned with the philosophy of science. Rather he is looking at classical philosophical issues from the behavioural or scientific viewpoint. Thus from the perspective of science he attempts to establish an understanding of philosophy. The author intended it primarily for behavioural scientists systems theorists and cyberneticians of the time who should have been closely bound up with the philosophical-scientific relationship. | The Science of Philosophy

Mild Cognitive Impairment International Perspectives

Mild Cognitive Impairment International Perspectives

The Classic Edition of this foundational text includes a new preface from Holly A. Tuokko examining how the field of Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) has developed since first publication. Bringing together research from multiple studies and perspectives from various countries the volume identifies MCI as an important clinical transition between normal aging and the early stages of Alzheimer's disease (AD). The up-to-date preface highlights the expansion in research examining the benefits of various pharmacological cognitive and behavioral approaches to intervention. Influenced by recent findings in neuroplasticity across the lifespan the book recognizes the importance of intervention at the earliest stages of the decline trajectory. It revisits the contested diagnostic approaches for MCI as well as the varying prevalence of MCI internationally yet points to the need for further longitudinal studies to fully understand the condition. Mild Cognitive Impairment continues to provide a comprehensive resource for clinicians researchers and students involved in the study diagnosis treatment and rehabilitation of people with MCI. | Mild Cognitive Impairment International Perspectives

Property A Study in Social Psychology

Property A Study in Social Psychology

First published in 1931 this book represents an attempt to study the psychological basis of the institution of property. There had been many psychological and social studies of marriage and religion prior to publication of this title but none which considered the problems which arise when the institution of property is viewed from the angle of social psychology. Some of these problems are set out in the first chapter. In the remaining chapters the author discusses the problems in the light of evidence drawn from the various branches of psychology and sociology of the day. The final chapter indicates the importance of the author’s conclusions for political and social theory at the time. | Property A Study in Social Psychology

Psychology of Fear Crime and the Media International Perspectives

Psychology of Fear Crime and the Media International Perspectives

The media continue to have a significant persuasive influence on the public perception of crime even when the information presented is not reflective of the crime rate or actual crime itself. There have been numerous theoretical studies on fear of crime in the media but few have considered this from a social psychological perspective. As new media outlets emerge and public dependence on them increases the need for such awareness has never been greater. This volume lays the foundation for understanding fear of crime from a social psychological perspective in a way that has not yet been systematically presented to the academic world. This volume brings together an international team of experts and scholars to assess the role of fear and the media in everyday life. Chapters take a multidisciplinary approach to psychology sociology and criminology and explore such topics as dual process theory construal level theory public fascination with gangs and other contemporary issues. | Psychology of Fear Crime and the Media International Perspectives

Introduction to Human Development and Family Studies

Introduction to Human Development and Family Studies

Introduction to Human Development and Family Studies is the first text to introduce human development and family studies (HDFS) as inextricably linked areas of study giving students a complex yet realistic view of individuals and families. Pioneers of research paradigms have acknowledged that the family is one setting in which human development occurs. Moreover in many academic programs the lines of these two disciplines blur and much work is inherently multidisciplinary and interdisciplinary. This book helps to fortify an understanding of HDFS and subareas within it. Vignettes from current HDFS students as well as new professionals an overview of the lifespan stage(s) within the family context a wide description of research methods and applications current policy issues relevant to the area and discussions of practice/careers coupled with strategies for pursuing specializations or careers in the area are hallmarks of this textbook. Introduction to Human Development and Family Studies is essential reading for students new to the major and minor wanting to know: What is HDFS? Who are the people involved in HDFS? Why is HDFS important? How does theory and research inform work in HDFS? What does the pursuit of being an ethical professional require? What are the key areas in HDFS? Incredibly user-friendly both on the page and online the text also features the following resources: Chapter Summaries where the main points of each chapter are pinpointed at the end of every chapter for review and study. Key Terms listed and defined within the margins of every chapter a complete Glossary at the end of the text and Flashcards online for additional review and study. Challenge: Integration section at the end of each chapter that underscores concepts from the chapter and draws connections between content presented in other chapters. Journal Questions to encourage reflection about the content and encourage thinking about some of the content coupled with students’ own experiences. Suggested Resources that lists relevant websites books articles and video links for further study. A Closer Look at Applied Experiences Appendix outlines the internship process and shows how the internship experience can be meaningful and useful and a Consuming Research Appendix that focuses on what it means to be a consumer of research the knowledge and skills consumers need and considerations for transitioning from a consumer of research to a producer of research.

Mathematical Models of Perception and Cognition Volume I A Festschrift for James T. Townsend

Mathematical Models of Perception and Cognition Volume I A Festschrift for James T. Townsend

In this two volume festschrift contributors explore the theoretical developments (Volume I) and applications (Volume II) in traditional cognitive psychology domains and model other areas of human performance that benefit from rigorous mathematical approaches. It brings together former classmates students and colleagues of Dr. James T. Townsend a pioneering researcher in the field since the early 1960s to provide a current overview of mathematical modeling in psychology. Townsend’s research critically emphasized a need for rigor in the practice of cognitive modeling and for providing mathematical definition and structure to ill-defined psychological topics. The research captured demonstrates how the interplay of theory and application bridged by rigorous mathematics can move cognitive modeling forward. | Mathematical Models of Perception and Cognition Volume I A Festschrift for James T.

Cognitive Neuroscience of Consciousness A Special Issue of Cognitive Neuroscience

Cognitive Neuroscience of Consciousness A Special Issue of Cognitive Neuroscience

How do conscious experience subjectivity and free will arise from the brain and the body? Even in the late 20th century consciousness was considered to be beyond the reach of science. Now understanding the neural mechanisms underlying consciousness is recognized as a key objective for 21st century science. The cognitive neuroscience of consciousness is a fundamentally multidisciplinary enterprise involving powerful new combinations of functional brain imaging computational modelling theoretical innovation and basic neurobiology. Its progress will be marked by new insights not only into the complex brain mechanisms underlying consciousness but also by novel clinical approaches to a wide range of neurological and psychiatric disorders. These innovations are well represented by the contents of the present volume. A target article by Victor Lamme puts forward the contentious position that neural evidence should trump evidence from behaviour and introspection in any theory of consciousness. This article and its several commentaries advance one of the fundamental debates in consciousness science namely whether there exists non-reportable phenomenal consciousness perhaps dependent on local rather than global neural processes. Other articles explore the wider terrain of the new science of consciousness. For example Maniscalco and colleagues use theta-burst transcranial magnetic stimulation to selectively impair metacognitive awareness; Massimini and coworkers examine changes in functional connectivity during anesthesi and Vanhaudenhuyse et al describe innovations in detecting residual awareness following traumatic brain injury. Together then contents of this volume exemplify the `grand challenge of consciousness' in combining transformative questions about the human condition with a tractable programme of experimental and theoretical research. | Cognitive Neuroscience of Consciousness A Special Issue of Cognitive Neuroscience

Politics of Social Psychology

Politics of Social Psychology

Social scientists have long known that political beliefs bias the way they think about understand and interpret the world around them. In this volume scholars from social psychology and related fields explore the ways in which social scientists themselves have allowed their own political biases to influence their research. These biases may influence the development of research hypotheses the design of studies and methods and materials chosen to test hypotheses decisions to publish or not publish results based on their consistency with one’s prior political beliefs and how results are described and dissemination to the popular press. The fact that these processes occur within academic disciplines such as social psychology that strongly skew to the political left compounds the problem. Contributors to this volume not only identify and document the ways that social psychologists’ political beliefs can and have influenced research but also offer solutions towards a more depoliticized social psychology that can become a model for discourse across the social sciences. | Politics of Social Psychology
