Social psychology - Paul Dickerson

Social Psychology: Traditional and Critical Perspectives addresses the key issues in social psychology ? such as prejudice, aggression, conformity, persuasion, attraction, relationships and prosocial behaviour ? in a bold and innovative way.


As well as providing detailed coverage of classic and contemporary ?mainstream? research, this book engages with ?critical? literature ? bringing to the textbook the sort of debates that can be found in social psychology conferences, journals and specialist texts.
In addition, the book goes beyond simply describing research findings ? it critically evaluates the research it covers, supporting your own critical engagement with the literature.
