Bringing together an array of outstanding contributors, this volume
offers an in-depth examination of unintended thought--its
underlying mechanisms, consequences in day-to-day life, and role in
mental and emotional disturbance. Chapters describe a number of
important phenomena that are influenced by unintended (and
sometimes automatic, uncontrolled, or unconscious) ways of
perceiving and interpreting the social and physical environment.
These include inferences and judgments about self and others,
stereotyping and prejudicial behavior, the impact of persuasive
messages, long-term goals, responses to stress, and clinical
depression. Key questions explored include the extent to which
research findings in controlled settings bear on cognition and
behavior outside the laboratory; how such constructs as intention
and control of thought have been operationalized by investigators;
and when self-control of unintended thought is possible or even
desirable. Researchers, practitioners, and graduate students in
cognitive, social, personality, and clinical psychology will find
much of value in this unique work.
