Child Development at the Intersection of Emotion and Cognition 2/e
By Martha Ann Bell
In this extensively revised edition, Martha Ann Bell and her contributors synthesize the newest research on how cognitive and emotional processes influence each other in child development. Historically, research in child development has treated cognitive processes as separate and distinct from social-emotional processes. However, many of the factors that influence self-regulation are also closely linked to cognitive development. For example, genetics, prenatal environment, relationships, language, and physiological processes are all links between emotion and cognition in child development. The first edition of this volume greatly increased our understanding of emotion-cognition integration.

Decolonial Psychology
Toward Anticolonial Theories, Research, Training, and Practice
By Lillian Comas-Diaz PhD, Hector Y. Adames, Nayeli Y. ChavezDuenas
This book offers an expert synthesis of the scholarly literature on approaches to decolonial psychology, its historical foundations, education and training, and psychological practice. From its inception, psychological science and practice in the United States has been framed predominantly by Eurocentric epistemologies.
As a result, oppressed people have internalized the belief that their culture and values are inferior to those of dominant groups. Infusing a decolonial lens into psychology is one way for the field to become more inclusive and relevant to the numerical majority worldwide.
Decolonial psychology creates space and methods for oppressed and impoverished communities to radically imagine their existence outside of the superimposed borders of coloniality, neoliberalism, racism, and other systems of oppression. It emphasizes how people’s subjectivity and connections to diverse social groups are influenced by history, context, and oppression; how these populations actively resist and survive attacks on their humanity; and how knowledge production is shaped not only by how data is interpreted but also by the questions asked.
The chapters in this book provide an opportunity for readers to deepen their understanding of how colonization and coloniality impacted knowledge creation in society and the field of psychology, including thought-provoking resources that explore the subject matter.

Each chapter opens with a case study that is revisited throughout the text and is accompanied by discussion questions that promote critical thinking and self-reflection about the importance of identity and intersectionality.
The overarching goal is to help people better understand one another, create constructive dialogues about social identity, and guide psychologists to create more fruitful working relationships with clients, patients, students, and others from diverse backgrounds.

What drives people toward their goals? Does motivation come from outside the individual or from within? This is a concise, engaging overview of leading theories and the wide body of research about this core concept in psychology. It draws from a broad spectrum of psychological models and disciplines, and focuses on how various theories of motivation define and examine different motivational attributes, such as rewards and goals.

Social Psychology 3/e
By Paul A.M. Van Lange, E. Tory Higgins, Arie W. Kruglanski
This definitive work now extensively revised with virtually all new chapters has introduced generations of researchers to the psychological processes that underlie social behavior. What sets the book apart is its unique focus on the basic principles that guide theory building and research.
Since work in the field increasingly transcends such boundaries as biological versus cultural or cognitive versus motivational systems, the third edition has a new organizational framework.
Leading scholars identify and explain the principles that govern intrapersonal, interpersonal, intragroup, and intergroup processes, in chapters that range over multiple levels of analysis. The books concluding section illustrates how social psychology principles come into play in specific contexts, including politics, organizational life, the legal arena, sports, and negotiation.
New elements to this edition include stronger emphasis on the contextual factors that influence how and why the basic principles work as they do. It also incorporates up-to -date findings and promising research programs, and integrates key advances in such areas as evolutionary theory and neuroscience.
