Synopsis

Emotion and Motivation, Fourth Edition, blends unprecedented scholarship with a friendly and accessible writing style that makes the study of these subject areas both interesting and relevant.

This text includes both classic and cutting-edge research to reflect thinking about the area of emotion and motivation. Emotion and Motivation, Fourth Edition, encourages critical thinking by openly tackling ongoing controversies, contradictory findings, methodological limitations, and even replication failures in a balanced and constructive way. While highly rigorous, the text is also student-friendly, with a light, humorous tone. With real-world stories and an intuitive structure, Emotion and Motivation addresses questions undergraduates are most likely to ask: Why do we have emotions? How do they affect our lives? What motivates human behavior? How can we improve well-being?
