This is the first work to condense the large literature on
explanatory style -- one's tendency to offer similar sorts of
explanations for different events. This cognitive variable has been
related to psychopathology, physical health, achievement and
success. Compiled by experts in the fields of depression, anxiety,
psychoneuroimmunology and motivation, this volume details our
current level of understanding, outlines gaps in our knowledge, and
discusses the future directions of the field.
Data from a vast number of studies are presented, including
results from studies not previously reported. Coverage includes
sections on cross-cultural comparisons, life-span and development
issues, and gender differences; and an extensive description of the
measurement of explanatory style offering questionnaire and
content-analysis methods for children, college populations and
adults. This work is thus a valuable tool for anyone involved in
research on the etiology and treatment of depression, cognitive
therapy, motivation and emotion, and the link between physical and
psychological well-being.
