Gendered Situations, Gendered Selves: A Gender Lens on Social Psychology: Gender Lens
Autor Jocelyn A. Hollander, Daniel G. Renfrow, Judith A. Howarden Limba Engleză Hardback – 16 ian 2011
The book examines the basic underpinnings of everyday interaction: from how we think, to who we see ourselves and others to be, to how we interact with others. Each of these processes is based on both social psychology and gender (as differentiated from sex), as well as our racial backgrounds, ethnic heritages, socioeconomic circumstances, sexualities, and national histories. The authors present and critique each of the major theories of social psychology, social exchange, social cognition, and symbolic interaction. In doing so, the book introduces a full array of key concepts in social psychology-perception, stereotyping, attribution, self-presentation, impression management, defining social situations, exchanging resources, and balancing power and dependence in social relations. The book also discusses two fundamental aspects of human behavior-the dynamics of helping and harming.
The second edition incorporates discussions of contemporary psychological and sociological research and features powerful new examples, including 9/11 and the election of Barack Obama.

Recenzii
Academic theories come alive, classic studies are given new relevance and the social complexity of gender is illuminated in new ways. This social psychology text will engage students and teachers in a compelling conversation about the dominant forces that organize our social world, shape our identities and structure our most intimate thoughts.
This work is an excellent analysis of the necessity of a 'gender lens' for understanding the behavior of individuals in the social context in which they live.
Praise for the first edition: This very interesting book is filled with adept summarizations and shrewd insights, and anyone interested in social psychology would be well advised to read it.
In sum, this book presents a thorough view of the discussion of gender in social psychology. It is a welcomed addition to contemporary works on gender in sociology and psychology, and anyone with an interest in the social psychology of gender would find this book useful in outlining key insights into gender from social psychological theories and research. The book would work particularly well for students new to sociology, psychology or social psychology of gender. The authors' astute analysis of the strengths and limitations of social psychological perspectives, but also the complementary nature of them, encourages students to move beyond a face-value approach and critically think and evaluate the principles and applications in social psychology. The authors' detailed explanations of key concepts and theories and their use of broad-ranging examples also make the content accessible and easy to comprehend.
