by J.RichardEiser (Author)
In broad terms, social judgement is concerned with how we make sense of our social world. How do people form impressions of the world around them, and how do they communicate these impressions through their expressive behaviour? This book is about the relevance of these processes for social psychology and for some of its major areas of theoretical and practical concern - including attitudes, impressions of other people and social groups, self-appraisals and the interplay of emotion and rationality. As a field of research, social judgement lies at a meeting point of many classical and contemporary traditions in general and social psychology.
