Coping with Lack of Control in a Social World offers an integrated
view of cutting-edge research on the effects of control deprivation
on social cognition. The book integrates multi-method research
demonstrating how various types of control deprivation, related not
only to experimental settings but also to real life situations of
helplessness, can lead to variety of cognitive and emotional coping
strategies at the social cognitive level. The comprehensive
analyses in this book tackle issues such as: Cognitive, emotional
and socio-behavioral reactions to threats to personal control How
social factors aid in coping with a sense of lost or threatened
control Relating uncontrollability to powerlessness and intergroup
processes How lack of control experiences can influence basic and
complex cognitive processes This book integrates various strands of
research that have not yet been presented together in an innovative
volume that addresses the issue of reactions to control loss in a
socio-psychological context. Its focus on coping as an active way
of confronting a sense of uncontrollability makes this a unique,
and highly original, contribution to the field. Practicing
psychologists and students of psychology will be particularly
interested readers.
