What's New
The text has been reorganized so that Dispositional Domain (a traditionally engaging topic for students) now follows the introduction; Biological Domain is now Part II .
Completely updated with new research and more student-friendly cases and examples, the second edition includes expanded coverage of new research methods such as fMRI and their applications; as well as new research findings in many areas such as extraversion, neuroticism, and Big 5 personality taxonomy; more coverage of the historical roots of personality psychology; and more evaluation of strengths and weaknesses of various data sources and studies.
The text's companion Online Learning Center now includes free access to PowerWeb--a password-protected website with current articles, weekly updates with assessment, timely world news, refereed Web links, interactive exercises, and much more. A PowerWeb access card is free with each new copy of the text.
