Personality: Strategies and Issues

Liebert, Robert M.

Self-Help

This sound, scholarly book continues to organize the diverse content of personality psychology in a meaningful way, taking care to present complex concepts in highly readable, accessible language. Using a single, overarching framework, the authors capture the flavor of each of four important conceptual strategies (psychoanalytic, dispositional, behavioral, and representational) and four fundamental issues (theory, assessment, research, and personality change) underlying contemporary personality psychology. The presentation of each strategy begins with an overview chapter that describes the strategy's basic assumptions and principles, as well as its respective intellectual school of thought. Then, after a more detailed presentation of the approaches that fall within the strategy, the authors conclude with a single chapter on the strategy's practical applications and limitations.

This engaging introduction to the field of behavior therapy is approachable enough for beginning students, yet its comprehensive treatment of the subject is scholarly, current, and resource-oriented enough to appeal to advanced students and professionals. The book broadly surveys contemporary behavior therapy, covering all the major therapy techniques, applications, and client populations as well as extensions of behavior therapy to areas such as behavioral medicine and behavioral community psychology. The book synthesizes the clinical, experimental, professional, and ethical facets of working in the behavior therapy field and provides a wealth of actual case material. Throughout the text, assessment and research issues are integrated with the discussion of therapy, an integration consistent with the practice in the field.
