It represents a collection of chapters written by Arie’s former students, friends, and collaborators. The chapters are rather diverse and cover a variety of topics from politics, including international terrorism, to health related issues, such as addiction and self-control, to basic psychological principles, such as motivation and self-regulation, the formation of attitudes, social influence, and interpersonal relationships.

Handbook of Motivation and Cognition, Volume 2 available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. HANDBOOK OF MOTIVATION AND COGNITION, Volume 1, challenged the prevailing hot/cold, either/or dichotomy, and proposed instead the "warm look"-- a synergistic approach to the roles of "hot" motivations and "cold" cognitions in the production of behavior. Highly acclaimed as a groundbreaking work, Contemporary Psychology called it, "an extremely valuable contribution to the field....Unique as a handbook...rather than summarizing an existing body of knowledge, it attempts to define and shape an emerging field." Volume 2 continues to emphasize both theory and research on the motivation-cognition interface. However, the range of approaches has been widened to include clinical, developmental, political, and cognitive psychological as well as the social and personality perspectives prominent in the first volume

However, the range of approaches has been widened to include clinical, developmental, political, and cognitive psychological as well as the social and personality perspectives prominent in the first volume. Volume 3, like its acclaimed predecessors, presents timely, original work on the interface of motivation and cognition. Rather than looking at the self, affect, and goals as primarily intrapersonal variables, however, Volume 3 shifts its concern to the role of motivation and cognition in interpersonal and intergroup behavior. Reflecting an increasing awareness of the impact of intergroup strife in contemporary life, leading researchers and theorists of social relations discuss topics including how we use others to further evaluate the self; how the self affects our judgment of others; the role of stereotyping and prejudices; and how we evaluate and interact with ingroups and outgroups. --from book description, Amazon.com.
Motivation and Cognitive Control

Download and read online ebook Motivation and Cognitive Control write by Todd S. Braver. This book was released on 2015-12-22. Motivation and Cognitive Control available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Individuals do not always perform to their full capability on cognitive tasks. When this occurs, the usual explanation is that the individual was not properly motivated. But this begs the important question: How and why does motivation interact with and influence cognitive processing and the control processes that regulate it? What are the underlying mechanisms that govern such interactions? Motivation has been an important component of psychology and neuroscience throughout the history of the field, but has recently been rejuvenated by rapidly accelerating research interest in the nature of motivation-cognition interactions, particularly as they impact control processes and goal-directed behavior. This volume provides an up-to-date snapshot of the state of research in this exciting, expanding area. The contributors to the volume are internationally-renowned researchers that lead the field in conducting groundbreaking studies. Moreover, they represent a variety of research perspectives and traditions: cognitive psychology and neuroscience, animal learning, social, affective, and personality psychology, and development, lifespan, and aging studies. This book summarizes our current state of understanding of the relationship between motivation and cognitive control, and serves as an essential reference for both students and researchers.

Download and read online ebook New Insights into the Language and Cognition Interface write by Rafał Augustyn. This book was released on 2018-11-16. New Insights into the Language and Cognition Interface available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. This book brings together, on the one hand, theoretical assumptions in cognitive linguistics and, on the other, empirical studies on language. It portrays, in a compact manner, the latest state of the dynamically changing research in five areas of cognitive explorations of language, including conceptual blending, discourse and narratology, multimodality, linguistic creativity, and construction grammar. These are shown mainly from the perspective of two languages: Polish and English. The volume will be of essential value to both students and scholars, as well as anyone interested in the application of current trends developed within cognitive linguistics to the empirical study of language and language-related phenomena.
