Psicología. Introducción al estudio del comportamiento humano.
La psicología (humana) se ha definido canónicamente como la ciencia que estudia el comportamiento (humano); pero antes de que la Psicología se definiera así, ya existía, desde muy antiguo, el interés por el comportamiento humano, aunque no se plasmara en un «corpus» de conocimiento psicológico, y, desde luego, no científico tal como lo concebidos hoy. Podemos recorrer en parte ese interés recurriendo a la historia de esas palabras «conducta» y «comportamiento». Es una manera de hacer que nos enseña Skinner, sobre todo en su artículo «The originis of cognitive thought» (Skinner, 1989; 1991), en el que escribe que la «etimología es la arqueología del pensamiento», y que ...

The Web of Violence
There is an increasing appreciation of the interconnections among all forms of violence. These interconnections have critical implications for conducting research that can produce valid conclusions about the causes and consequences of abuse, maltreatment, and trauma. The accumulated data on co-occurrence also provide strong evidence that prevention and intervention should be organized around the full context of individuals’ experiences, not narrowly defined subtypes of violence. Managing the flood of new research and practice innovations is a challenge, however. New means of communication and integration are needed to meet this challenge, and the Web of Violence is intended to contribute t...
Protecting Children Against Bullying and Its Consequences
This compact resource synthesizes current research on bullying in the schools while presenting strengths-based approaches to curbing this growing epidemic. Its international review of cross-sectional and longitudinal studies unravels the complex dynamics of bullying and provides depth on the range of negative outcomes for bullies, victims, enablers, and victims who bully.

Throughout, the authors clearly define bullying as a public health/mental health is...

Stability of Happiness
The right to "pursue happiness" is one of the dominant themes of western culture, and understanding the causes of happiness is one of the primary goals of the positive psychology movement. However, before the causality question can even be considered, a more basic question must be addressed: CAN happiness change? Reasons for skepticism include the notion of a "genetic set point" for happiness, i.e. a stable personal baseline of happiness to which individuals will always return, no matter how much their lives change for the better; the life-span stability of happiness-related traits such as neuroticism and extraversion; and the powerful processes of hedonic adaptation, which erode the positive effects of any fortuitous life change. This book investigates prominent theories on happiness with the research evidence to discuss when and how happiness changes and for how long. - Identifies all major theories of happiness - Reviews empirical results on happiness longevity/stability - Discusses mitigating factors in what influences happiness longevity
