About this title

Synopsis

This volume brings together critical analysis of the phenomenon called interpersonal expectations--a sub-area of social psychology that studies how the expectations of one person affects the behavior of another in an interactive setting. It is divided into three major sections: (1) real-world applications of research on interpersonal expectations, such as in the courtroom, classroom and operating room; (2) the mediation of interpersonal expectations through verbal and nonverbal behavior; and (3) the emerging methodological and statistical techniques for understanding the implications of interpersonal expectations. Critical commentary and analysis by leading scholars in the field are presented.

Book Description

The phenomenon called interpersonal expectations is explored in this study in applied settings--eg. in the courtroom, classroom and operating room--as well as basic research settings involving studies of the nonverbal mediation of expectancy effects.
