Description

Representing a rich range of intellectual perspectives, a variety of theoretical approaches to person-environment psychology has been developed. This volume's purpose is to link the past and the present and look to the future in reviewing contemporary approaches, and to offer models and perspectives that make some sensible predictions concerning the individual and the environment. Within a person-environment framework, these models and perspectives are concerned with how people tend to influence environments and how environments reciprocally tend to influence people. Thus, this volume presents contemporary views on person-environment psychology and the implications for theory, research, and application.
