Communication, Social Cognition, and Affect (PLE: Emotion)

by Lewis Donohew (Editor), Howard E. Sypher (Editor), E. Tory Higgins (Editor)

Overview

Originally published in 1988, the purpose of this book was to explore the interrelations among communication, social cognition and affect. The contributors, selected by the editors, are some of the best known in their fields and they significantly added to the knowledge of this interdisciplinary domain at the time. In late April 1986 the authors met at a conference centre at the University of Kentucky. They presented first drafts of their chapters and exchanged ideas. Out of these interactions came this book, which has a broad interest across several areas of psychology and communication. While answering a number of questions, the authors also posed other questions for future examination.
