Description

This collection provides a comprehensive and up-to-date synthesis of classic and key publications in the field of Health Psychology. The classic papers are those which have proved to be ground breaking, and have remained highly influential in the discipline long since they were published. The key papers are those, which will provide the reader with a good overview or introduction to a particular area and how it is researched. Thus the collection includes a complementary mix of recent publications and older, classic works, illuminating new directions in the field theoretically and methodologically. The Major Work consists of 80 papers and is organised into the following four volumes: Vol. 1 Models Vol. 2 Concepts Vol. 3 Methods and Measurements Vol. 4 Applications in Health, Illness and Healthcare Across the four volumes, the Editors present a wide range of readings in the discipline, including highly cited theoretical articles, empirical articles, as well as some book chapters that have had great impact in terms of presenting research findings and influencing the key debates in the field. These papers have also been selected on the basis of their international impact. Each of the volumes opens with an introductory editorial essay by the Editors setting out the rationale behind the selection of papers in terms of their historical, theoretical and empirical importance in the development of the field. The net effect is to provide an integrated account of this rapidly developing and expansive discipline. Author/Editor Description: John Weinman is a Professor in the Department of Psychology at the Institute of Psychiatry, London. Marie Johnston is a Professor in the School of Psychology, University of Aberdeen. Dr Gerry Malloy is a Research Fellow in the School of Psychology, University of Aberdeen. Please also include the Series Brief in the prelims: SAGE Benchmarks in Psychology brings together the most influential and field-defining articles, both classical and contemporary, in each of the sub-disciplines of psychological science presented as a series of multi-volume major works. Each multi-volume set represents a collection of the published works from leading international scholars and academics throughout the world, collated from the foremost journals in each field and brought together by an editor or editorial team of renowned international stature. A full introduction is offered by the editor(s) of each set to present a rationale for the selection of articles, an overview of the field, the discipline's past, present and likely future, and to draw upon the articles selected in each volume as signposts for the reader. Psychological science has evolved enormously throughout the latter half of the twentieth century. It is therefore vital that a solid academic reference is available for university libraries which presents the outstanding work and research in each sub-discipline of the field. This series presents the 'gold standard' for university libraries throughout the world with an existing collection or interest in psychological reference works. SAGE Benchmarks in Psychology allows scholars, researchers and students to be more effectively informed of the main developments, while also setting the tone for future research in their chosen area of psychological science. Other major works in this series include: Social Psychology (four-volume set, published 2002) Individual Differences (four-volume set, published 2003) Developmental Psychology I (three-volume set, published 2004) Developmental Psychology II (three-volume set, published 2005)
