Educational Psychology: A Century of Contributions--the first comprehensive book-length treatment of this topic--looks at the historic contributions of 16 leading psychologists, as well as others, who influenced the field of educational psychology from its philosophical moorings in the late 19th century to its current scientific status at the dawn of the 21st. It presents information regarding these individuals' ideas and scientific discoveries, along with a sense of the historical context in which they lived. The book is divided into three sections that correspond to three eras in the history of the discipline: *the founding period (1880s to 1920); *the rise to prominence period (1920 to1960); and *the modern period (1960 to the present). Each section begins with an overview chapter describing the period in terms of key social, political, and historical events affecting educational theory, research, and practice. In addition, the overview chapters discuss major theoretical, methodological, and instructional contributions of the period and how they changed the course of educational psychology. The biographical chapters describe the scholar's major contribution in terms of theory, research, and practice and his or her legacy and impact. These descriptions portray these individuals as real human beings responding to historical events and social influences of their time in personal and collective ways that changed the nature and direction of the field. Educational Psychology: A Century of Contributions is a cohesive collection appropriate for graduate and advanced undergraduate students in educational psychology.

Robert Ewen's An Introduction to Theories of Personality helps students unravel the mysteries of human behavior through its highly readable introduction to the ideas of the most significant theorists and related new research. Engaging biographical sketches open each chapter and unique capsule summaries help students review key concepts. Theories come alive through the inclusion of quotations from the theorists' writings and numerous applications, such as dream interpretation, psychopathology, and psychotherapy. Significant changes in the sixth edition include: *A Reorganization according to the five major perspectives (psychodynamic, humanistic, trait, behaviorist, and cognitive) to help clarify the major approaches to personality for the student. *New boxes at the beginning of each chapter to highlight the theorist's objectives and what he or she was trying to accomplish. *New glossaries of key concepts and of theorists, to help students organize their studies. *New tables and charts to help clarify distinctions between theorists. *Expanded applications to everyday life. *An increased emphasis on the social cognitive perspective, with a chapter devoted entirely to Albert Bandura. *Expanded material on the factor-analytic trait theory, with new material on the "Big Five" theory and Hans Eysenck. An Instructor's Manual With Test Questions contains an overview of each objective noted in the chapter opening and three types of exam questions: multiple-choice, and short and long essay. Dr. Ewen's revised text is intended for courses on theories of personality and/or psychology of personality.
