Now published by SAGE!

In Personality, the historical underpinnings of core theories and research come alive through biographical and contextual illustrations. Author Jerry M. Burger, and new co-author Gretchen M. Reevy, use vivid stories and discussions to challenge learners to critically consider the discipline’s approach to diversity, research science, and its future as a holistic field of study. With a balance of both theory and research, along with application sections and personality tests, you will gain hands-on experience and a comprehensive understanding of the subject matter. Every chapter in this Eleventh Edition has been thoroughly updated, such as sections on Extraversion-Introversion, Dream Interpretation, and Gender Roles, to reflect the most recent research. It also features 400 new references, a new research topic on Narcissism, and two new personality scales.
