This is the fifth, completely revised and updated edition of an introductory social psychology text that has had huge success in Europe and across the globe. It has been specially designed to meet the needs of students at all levels, with contributions written by leading social psychologists, each an acknowledged expert on the topics covered in a given chapter. An Introduction to Social Psychology benefits hugely from an updated range of innovative pedagogical features intended to catch the imagination, combined with a rigorous editorial approach, which results in a cohesive and uniform style accessible to all. Each chapter addresses both major theories and key studies, showing how the relevant field of research has developed over time and linking classic and contemporary perspectives.

- Full coverage of all the major theories and topics
- Focused discussions of important research studies and the implications of their findings
- Descriptions of real-life application of theory and research are presented throughout in the 'Social Psychology Beyond the Lab' feature
- 'Individual Differences' boxes with illustrative items from scales used to measure variables discussed in the chapters
- Clear conclusions, further reading and learning questions to track your progression
