Control of Human Behavior, Mental Processes, and Consciousness (Paperback)

Paperback. In this book, an international group of leading scientists present perspectives on the control of human behavior, awareness, consciousness, and the meaning and function of perceived control or self-efficacy in people's lives. The book breaks down the barriers between subdisciplines, and thus constitutes an occasion to reflect on various facets of control in human life. Each expert reviews his or her field through the lens of perceived control and shows how these insights can be applied in practice. This volume, which honors one of Europe's leading developmental psychologists, delves into topics of particular interest to August Flammer. These topics are timely and important issues for those studying social and cognitive psychology, as well.
