Understanding Police and Police Work: Psychological Issues

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Yarmey, A. Daniel / Harrison, Marina / Rosenfeld, Lucy, PUBLISHER: New York University Press, According to social psychologist A. Daniel Yarmey, police officers find the nature of their work necessitates that they behave to some extent like applied psychologists. Many police officers, of course, do not have any special training in this or any allied field, nor do they have an understanding of what cognitive or social psychology might be able to tell them about the behavior of those with whom they are likely to deal in their daily work. Similarly, psychologists are habitually asked by the courts to present research regarding eyewitness testimony, forensic evidence, and competency to stand trial, yet psychologists frequently lack any real awareness of policing or of police officers. "Understanding Police and Police Work," the first systematic an comprehensive review of the psychology of police and their work, focuses on the psychological basis of police officers' interactions with society. It shows how psychology and other social sciences can contribute to an understanding of police behavior as well as the behavior of citizens and other professionals with whom the police are involved.

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Rowan, John / Rowan, J., PUBLISHER: Routledge, Transpersonal psychology is concerned with the spiritual/religious aspects of being human. John Rowan, author of "Subpersonalities" and "The Reality Game," has written the most complete account of the area.

In looking at the practice of transpersonal psychology, he covers such exciting areas as dreams, regression, and active imagination, and shows how transpersonal psychology has always been an important part of therapy. Finally he discusses the criticisms of transpersonal psychology and looks at its future.

Epigenesis of Mind

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Gelman, Rochel / Carey, Susan, PUBLISHER: Psychology Press, Reflecting the focus of a Jean Piaget Symposium entitled "Biology and Knowledge: Structural Constraints on Development," this volume presents many of the emergent themes discussed. Among them: * Structural constraints on cognitive development and learning come in many shapes and forms and involve appeal to more than one level of analysis. * To postulate innate knowledge is not to deny that humans can acquire new concepts. * It is unlikely that there is only one learning mechanism, even if one prefers to work with general as opposed to domain-specific mechanisms. * The problems of induction with respect to concept acquisition are even harder than originally thought.

The Debated Mind: Evolutionary Psychology Versus Ethnography

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Whitehouse, Harvey, PUBLISHER: Berg Publishers, In a further development of the nature-nurture debate, this collection of articles questions how the human mind influences the content and organization of culture. In the study of mental activity, can the effects of evolution and history be teased apart? Evolutionary psychologists argue that cultural transmission is constrained by our genetic inheritance. Few social and cultural anthropologists have found this argument to be relevant to their work and many would doubt its validity. This book uniquely pitches the arguments for innatism against ethnographic perspectives that call into question the theoretical foundations of orthodox evolutionary biology and cognitive science. Ultimately the aim of the debate is to create an original set of mutually compatible theories that will open up new areas for interdisciplinary research.
