Introduction to Personality and Intelligence

Unlike the often cursory treatment of personality in introductory psychology textbooks or the rather advanced nature of content in many personality textbooks, "An Introduction to Personality" provides the perfect package for the first time psychology student taking an entire course on the subject. It provides a wealth of student-friendly features including: manageable chapter sizes; course-focused pedagogy and jargon-free language; a diverse set of case study material; and front and chapter end features with lists of key concepts related to theoretical discussions in the text (indicated in the margins). Written primarily for lower-level undergraduates, the author's writing style and incorporation of the latest empirical research findings makes "An Introduction to Personality" the ideal textbook for all personality psychology students.
