Description: Understanding how individuals react to different situations has long been a key concern in psychology. This book deals primarily with the relationship of personality to the question of consistency of behaviour and the adaptation of behaviour to situations and environment. This book makes a substantial contribution to theory for all those interested in personality psychology, and offers a useful range of methods for situational research, including self reports, behavioural observation, and psychophysiological measures.
