Social Psychology: Sociological Perspectives
David E. Rohall, Western Illinois University
Melissa A. Milkie, University of Maryland
Jeffrey W. Lucas, University of Maryland
ISBN: 0205440045
This text, written by a team of sociologists, introduces students to social psychology by focusing on the contributions of sociology to this field. It explores the perspectives, theories, and issues that are of the greatest importance to sociology, such as social inequality, and the role of the larger society in constructing and defining our day-to-day interactions. The authors introduce three major social psychological paradigms–symbolic interaction, social structure and personality, and group processes–and use them to examine every major topic in the text.
David Rohall (de-rohall@wiu.edu), received his Ph.D. in 2000 from University of Maryland-College Park, and is now Associate Professor of Sociology at Western Illinois University. In addition to general courses in sociology, Dr. Rohall teaches courses in sociological social psychology, identity, and socialization. His primary research interests lie within the social structure and personality perspective, including the study of how social structural conditions impact individuals' sense of self and their attitudes and beliefs about the world.
Melissa A. Milkie (mmilkie@socy.umd.edu) received her Ph.D. in 1995 from Indiana University, and is currently Professor of Sociology at the University of Maryland-College Park. Her primary research interests, often framed within a symbolic interactionist perspective, include examining how cultural ideals related to dimensions of stratification like gender, race, and social class influence the self-concept and mental health. Much of her recent work examines family and school contexts of children’s and adults’ mental health.
Jeffrey W. Lucas (jlucas@socy.umd.edu) received his Ph.D. in 2000 from the University of Iowa and is now Associate Professor of Sociology at the University of Maryland-College Park. His primary research interest, centrally located within the group processes perspective, is the experimental analysis of theories of basic social processes.
