Goal Concepts in Personality and Social Psychology

Bringing together major theoretical and research developments in the application of goal concepts to personality and social psychology, this title, originally published in 1989, illustrates the relevance of goal research for industrial and organizational behavior studies and the utility of goal concepts for both motivation and social cognition research.

Is behavior motivated? And if so, can it be motivated by the anticipation of future events? What role does cognition play in such motivational processes? And, further, what role does motivation play in ongoing cognitive activity? Questions such as these provide the foundation for this book, originally published in 1989. More specifically, the chapters in this book address the question of the utility of goals concepts in studying motivation and social cognition.
