Changing Health Behaviour
*Can theory-driven interventions using social cognition models change health behaviour? * How should theoretical models be adapted for intervention? * What are the implications for policy and practice? For many years, social cognition models have been at the forefront of research into predicting and explaining health behaviours. Until recently, there have been few attempts to go beyond prediction and understanding to intervention - but now the position has changed, and a number of excellent interventions have been set up. The purpose of this book is to bring them together in one volume. After an introductory chapter on the models and interventions to be included, there are nine chapters that...
Communicating by Telephone
This book examines the contribution which social psychology has made to telecommunications, and in turn considers how telecommunications have contributed to social psychology. The emphasis throughout is on experimental research and theory. The history and development of the telephone is discussed, with particular attention paid to its uses and effectiveness, especially in interviewing and surveys, crisis intervention and counselling, and conferences and teaching. The theoretical background to the main arguments of the book are introduced, concentrating on non-verbal communication, especially looking, eye-contact, seeing and cuelessness. Outcome research, in particular the transmission of information and problem solving, persuasion and person perception is discussed. Process is also explored, including the content and style of interactions. The concluding section examines recent research on teaching and learning by telephone.
Understanding and Changing Health Behaviour
The identification of the factors predicting health behaviour has become a major focus of research in the field of health psychology and related disciplines. This awareness not only increases our understanding but also provides important targets for interventions to change health behaviour. Understanding and Changing Health Behaviour focuses on a range of key social cognitive factors in this process, using examples from an impressive breadth of applied settings that include smoking cessation, condom use and breast examination. The book features contributions from some of the best known researchers in the field.
Digitale Kommunikationsstrukturen
Bekannt durch die Hackergruppierung Anonymous, Pizzagate oder die QAnon-Verschwörungstheorie gibt die englischsprachige Internetplattform 4chan.org Rätsel auf. Jede*r mit Internetzugang kann posten, die Nutzenden sind anonym, ihre Beiträge flüchtig und die Inhalte werden nicht moderiert. Trotz der daraus resultierenden Erwartungsunsicherheit organisiert sich die Kommunikation selbst und gießt sich in idealtypische Muster. Unter systemtheoretischen Annahmen modelliert Christina Laut-Berger die Kommunikationsstrukturen von 4chan.org anhand eines innovativen, netzwerkanalytischen Forschungsdesigns und leistet so einen Beitrag zur grundlegenden Erforschung digitaler Sozialität.

Demography: Analysis and Synthesis, Four Volume Set
This four-volume collection of over 140 original chapters covers virtually everything of interest to demographers, sociologists, and others. Over 100 authors present population subjects in ways that provoke thinking and lead to the creation of new perspectives, not just facts and equations to be memorized. The articles follow a theory-methods-applications approach and so offer a kind of "one-stop shop" that is well suited for students and professors who need non-technical summaries, such as political scientists, public affairs specialists, and others. Unlike shorter handbooks, Demography: Analysis and Synthesis offers a long overdue, thorough treatment of the field. Choosing the analytical m...
