"'Now what do I teach?' is a common refrain among social psychologists taken aback by recent failures to replicate some prominent and classic findings. Updating a social psychology textbook is an unenviable task at a time of substantial uncertainty about theories and findings that seemed almost ordinary in the last edition. Admirably, Editors Finkel and Baumeister aim to address reproducibility directly in this 2nd Edition of Advanced SocialPsychology. The first three chapters discuss replicability challenges and reforms to improve rigor and credibility. They also set the stage that science does not have a canon of inarguable facts. Scientificunderstanding is always in revision, and every finding, claim, and theory is open to confrontation.The other 18 substantive chapters approach replicability differently. Some highlight replicability success and challenges in their substantive domains; the chapters on Attraction, Morality, Health, and Computation stand out as effective examples. Others appear to address replicability implicitly by what is not said or cited. In those, the self-corrective process of science is working quietly by omission. Finally, a few chapters appear to have missed news ofthe 'reproducibility crisis.' These chapters treat each cited claim with the same enthusiastic certainty whether it is backed by a substantial body of evidence or a single paper with just significanteffects. This diversity among contributed chapters reflects where we are today as a discipline--still wrestling, from many points of view, with the credibility of the rich theories and findings that comprise social psychology." --Brian Nosek, Professor, Department of Psychology, University of Virginia"This book is a must-have, and a must-read, for anyone who is interested in getting familiar with some specifics as well as the broader picture of social psychology. This collective effort by true leaders is an essential public good to the field." -- Paul van Lange, Professor, Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam"The second-edition of Advanced Social Psychology, like its predecessor, offers a comprehensive, authoritative, and engaging account of the state of the science in social psychology. The editors and authors have thoughtfully updated the now-classic first edition of the text, including new chapters on research methods, morality, and computational psychology, broadening and updating coverage of the field. The new introduction addresses current concerns about replicability, providing useful context and a practically-oriented, forward-looking take on emerging efforts to ensure that social psychology has a healthy future." -- Rick Hoyle, Professor of Psychology and Neuroscience and Director of Undergraduate Studies, Duke University"Finkel and Baumeister have assembled a superb cast of leading scholars who anchor the major content areas of social psychology. This excellent advanced textbook, which fills a critical gap in relation to its competitors, is required reading." -- Jeffry Simpson, Professor of Psychology, University of Minnesota"The brilliance of Advanced Social Psychology emerges as much from the subject matter as it does from the collaborative effort of the many experts, each with an eye for that perfect picture and a steady hand that renders each image with superb clarity." --Mahzarin R.

Synopsis
Social psychology uses clever, even ingenious, research methods to explore the most essential questions of the human psyche: Why do we help some people and harm others? Why do we pay so much more attention to high-powered people than they pay to us? If humans evolved from great apes, why are human selves so much more elaborate? How does our attachment to our parents when we are infants influence the success or failure of our romantic relationships when we are adults? Can behaving morally "license" us to behave immorally shortly afterward? How do social relationships make us more versus less prone toward physical illness? This volume -- an update to the original, 2010 edition -- provides a graduate-level introduction to social psychology. The target audience consists of first-year graduate students (MA or PhD) in social psychology and related disciplines (marketing, organizational behavior, etc.), although it is also appropriate for upper-level undergraduate courses. The authors are world-renowned leaders on their topic, and they have written state-of-the-art overviews of the discipline's major research domains. The chapters are not only scientifically rigorous, but also accessible and engaging. They convey the joy, excitement, and promise of scientific investigations into human sociality., Social psychology uses clever, even ingenious, research methods to explore the most essential questions of the human psyche: Why do we help some people and harm others?

    A+++++ Seller! Professor's syllabus listed the wrong book for the course, and told us of the mistake the first day of class. Contacted seller textbooks_source ASAP, and they were able to stop and refund the first order. I then purchased this textbook as the correct book for the course. Textbook received as described. This is a great seller. I would (and did) purchase from again. A++++++!!!!!!!
