Personality Psychology ─ A Student-Centered Approach

In Personality Psychology 2e author Jim McMartin examines major theories of personality as they apply to understanding our past, present, and future selves. McMartin uses a question-and-answer approach to help students understand how theories of personality are relevant across the lifespan. Throughout the text students are encouraged to critically evaluate each theory for themselves in terms of how much it contributes to an understanding of their own personalities and lives. The second edition now includes two new chapters on Research Methods and Personality Assessment and Personality Disorders.
