The first comprehensive theoretical formulation of the way people
use information they receive about their social environments to
make judgments and behavioral decisions, this volume focuses on the
cognitive processes that underlie the use of social information.
These include initial interpretation, the representations used to
make inferences, and the transformation of these subjective
inferences into overt judgment and behavior. In addition, it
specifies the role of affect and emotion in information processing,
and the role of self-knowledge at different stages of processing.
The theoretical model presented here is the first to provide a
conceptual integration of existing theory and research in all
phases of social information processing. It not only accounts for
the major portion of existing research findings, but permits
several hypotheses to be generated concerning phenomena that have
not yet been empirically investigated. Although focused here on the
processing of information about people and events, the formulation
proposed has implications for other domains such as personnel
appraisal, political decision making, and consumer behavior.
