Personality

This proven text fuses the best of theory-based and research-based instruction to give readers an illuminating introduction to personality that is accessible and understandable. The author pairs "theory, application, and assessment" chapters with chapters that describe the research programs aligned with every major theoretical approach. Biographical sketches of theorists and accounts of the stories behind influential research programs help readers gain an understanding of how classic and contemporary findings relate to each other, and reinforce the idea that theory and research perpetuate one another. In-text self-assessments encourage readers to interact with the material and allow them to learn more about their own personality.

I'm still using the textbook for my summer class. Just wish the due date was after class ends and not before. I'm happy I ordered the book and not purchase it because my professor doesn't refer to the text as much as I thought she would.smh

This book reads more like a story and it can be difficult to pull out the relevant information.

Exactly what I needed for class. I love that allows me to rent and get it onto my computer rather than just on my tablet.

Wow, is this a dated presentation to personality; old white men with no reference to new changes in DSM-5.

Good text book just not my preferred specialization of psychology

brand new!!! Got it really quick.

Great, same as described.

In good condition
