Social psychology explores how people think, feel and behave in social situations, helping us understand the forces that shape relationships, identities, attitudes and group behaviour. Social Psychology provides a comprehensive introduction to the theories, research and real-world applications that define the discipline. Combining scientific rigour with engaging examples, the text helps students connect foundational concepts to contemporary social issues and everyday experiences.
Taking a unique global perspective, this resource brings together UK, European and North American approaches to social psychology while exploring the latest developments in the field. Coverage of topics such as social media, populism, climate change, health behaviours, prejudice and leadership helps students understand how social psychological principles apply to the challenges and opportunities facing individuals and societies today.
