This volume highlights state-of-the-art research on motivated
social perception by the leaders in the field. Recently a number of
researchers developed influential accounts of how motivation
affects social perception. Unfortunately, this work was developed
without extensive contact between the researchers, and therefore
evolved into two distinct traditions. The first tradition shows
that the motivation to maintain a positive self-concept and to
define oneself in the social world can dramatically affect people's
social perception. The second one shows that people's goals have a
dramatic effect on how they see themselves and others. Motivated
Social Perception shows how these two approaches often overlap and
provides insights into how these two perspectives are integrated.
Motivated Social Perception contains chapters on: *the effect of
motivation on the activation and application of stereotypes;
*self-affirmation in the evaluations of the self and others;
*implicit and explicit aspects of self-esteem; *self-esteem
contingencies and relational aspects of the self; *an investigation
of the roots and functions of basic goals; and *extensions of
self-regulatory theory. This book is intended for scholars,
researchers, and advanced students interested in social perception
and social cognition.
