Description du livre
The examination of personality and individual differences is a major field of research in the modern discipline of psychology. Concerned with the ways humans develop an organised set of characteristics to shape themselves and the world around them, it is a study of how people come to be ‘different' and ‘similar' to others, on both an individual and a cultural level. This volume focuses on various contexts and applications of personality and individual differences, in chapters arranged across three thematic sections:
Part 1: Health and Psychological Adjustment
Part 2: Social Behavior
Part 3: Personality in the Workplace
With outstanding contributions from leading scholars across the world, this is an invaluable resource for researchers and graduate students.
