Evidence is mounting that we are not as in control of our
judgements and behavior as we think we are. Unconscious or
'automatic' forms of psychological and behavioral processes are
those of which we tend to be unaware, that occur without our
intention or consent, yet influence us on a daily basis in profound
ways. Automatic processes influence our likes and dislikes for
almost everything, as well as how we perceive other people, such as
when we make stereotypic assumptions about someone based on their
race or gender or social class. Even more strikingly, the latest
research is showing that the aspects of life that are the richest
experience and most important to us - such as emotions and our
close relationships, as well as the pursuit of our important life
tasks and goals - also have substantial unconscious
components.Social Psychology and the Unconscious: The Automaticity
of Higher Mental Processes offers a state-of-the-art review of the
evidence and theory supporting the existence and the significance
of automatic processes in our daily lives, with chapters by the
leading researchers in this field today, across a spectrum of
psychological phenomena from emotions and motivations to social
judgement and behavior. The volume provides an introduction and
overview of these now central topics to graduate students and
researchers in social psychology and a range of allied disciplines
with an interest in human behavior and the unconscious, such as
cognitive psychology, philosophy of mind, political science, and
business.
