Description: Experiments With
People showcases 28 intriguing studies that have significantly advanced our
understanding of human thought and social behavior. These studies, mostly
laboratory experiments, shed light on the irrationality of everyday thinking,
the cruelty and indifference of 'ordinary' people, the operation of the unconscious
mind, and the intimate bond between the self and others. This book tells the
inside story of how social psychological research gets done and why it matters.
Each chapter
focuses on the details and implications of a single study, but cites related
research and real-life examples. All chapters are self-contained, allowing them
to be read in any order.
Each chapter is divided into:
*Background--provides
the rationale for the study;
*What They
Did--outlines the design and procedure used;
*What They
Found--summarizes the results obtained;
*So
What?--articulates the significance of those results;
*Afterthoughts--explores
the broader issues raised by the study; and
*Revelation--encapsulates
the 'take-home message' of each chapter.
