People in
groups act aggressively as a group, not as a collection of individuals.
The Psychology of Group Aggression's comprehensive journey starts
with group dynamics theory and research by reviewing its relationship
to aggression. Arnold P. Goldstein then provides a unique and
valuable insight into the different types and levels of intensity
of anti-social behavior, examines its causes and considers its
costs. In separate chapters he considers low intensity aggression,
including ostracism, hazing, teasing; mid-intensity, e.g. bullying
and harassment; and high intensity aggression, e.g. mobs and
gangs. In a final section, he considers management and intervention
techniques, both widely employed and emerging methods.
The
Psychology of Group Aggression is an important work for
both a pure and an applied audience. It will be a key reference
for many, including clinical and forensic psychologists, psychiatrists,
criminal justice workers, social psychologists and academics
and students in criminology, psychology and sociology.

In many cases,
people select a career for all the wrong reasons, and find their
responses to the workplace are incompatible with their true
values. This situation results in feelings of unrest and discontent
and in lost productivity. To help people avoid these problems,
the newly-revised Career Anchors is designed to help
people uncover their real values and use them to make better
career choices. This revised edition includes two new sections,
"Major Stages of the Career" and "Career Movement, Progress,
or Success." Instructions and other components have been revamped
for clarification, the references have been updated, and the
contents have been rearranged for more convenient usage in classes
and workshops. Career Anchors can help you think through your
career options and give you a clear understanding of:
- Your
own orientations toward work
- Your
motives
- Your
values
- Your
talents
The Career
Anchors Instrument and Trainer's Manual provide a
systematic way of exploring how you perceive yourself, based
on your own experiences. The instrument is divided into three
parts?the orientations inventory, the career anchor interview,
and the conceptual material. Career Anchors will help
people:
- Define
the themes and patterns dominant in your life
- Understand
your own approach to work and a career
- Provide
reasons for choices
- Take
steps to fulfill your own self-image
