en Limba Engleză Hardback – 16 sep 2019
The field of human motivation has been undergoing a revolutionary shift in the 21st century. What new philosophical assumptions, motivational models, and empirical evidence have emerged? What does this look like in theory and in application? The Oxford Handbook of Human Motivation, Second Edition addresses these key advances made in the field since the previous edition, offering the latest insights from the top theorists and researchers of human motivation. The volume includes chapters on social learning theory, control theory, self-determination theory, terror management theory, and regulatory focus theory, while also presenting articles from leading scholars on phenomena such as ego-depletion, choice, curiosity, flow, implicit motives, and personal interests. A special section dedicated to goal research highlights achievement goals, goal attainment, goal pursuit and unconscious goals, and the goal orientation process across adulthood. This Handbook also provides practical research and guidance with sections on relationships and applications in areas such as psychotherapy, education, physical activity, sport, and work. By providing reviews of the most advanced work by the very best scholars in this field, The Oxford Handbook of Human Motivation, Second Edition represents an invaluable resource for both researchers and practitioners, as well as any student of human nature.

Recenzii

"The updated volume continues the tradition of excellence established by the first edition, while adding new chapters covering "cross-cultural perspectives, neuropsychology, and applications of motivation science." An impressive array of more than 65 contributors provide 28 chapters advancing from general theories of motivation to specific applied areas in which understanding of motivation can have its greatest impact, such as relationships and goal fulfillment. Each chapter is thoroughly researched, up-to-date, and self-contained, including its own list of pertinent references. The reader will emerge not only well informed about this powerful area of research but also with new insight about how critically important such understanding is for solving real-world problems. All libraries supporting graduate programs in psychology should own this work."
