Présentation de l'éditeur :
Which behaviour patterns are detrimental to health? Why do people engage in such behaviour, even if they know about its negative effects? How can people be influenced to change their behaviour?This popular textbook addresses these key questions from a social psychological perspective. Recent research has been added to the new edition including the author's own research into obesity, sexual risk behaviour, and the stressful consequences of losing a marriage partner through death. The epidemiological information and references have been extensively updated.
Biographie de l'auteur :
By integrating theories and research on automatic behaviour with the more traditional reasoned action approach, the book provides a new answer to the age-old puzzle of health research; why people engage in behaviour which they know will damage their health. The book also:
- Discusses determinants of health behaviour, based on the most recent research on social cognition
- Includes a review of research on the health impact of health behaviour and stress
- Considers how behaviour is influenced by environmental factors outside individual awareness
- Argues for an integrative approach that combines psychological, economic and environmental interventions in order to reduce the potential risk to health arising from behaviour or stressful events.
Wolfgang Stroebe is Professor of Social Psychology at Utrecht University in theNetherlands, where he was founding director of theResearch Institute for Psychology and Health,incorporating leading health researchers from Dutchand Belgian universities.
