Omtale

This book represents a rare occasion when scholars from Europe, North Africa and North America share their research findings on an important theme: integration. Despite different research foci and methodologies, there is a strong consensus that we need to understand a psychological phenomenon in all its complexity, involving its neural, psychological, and social dimensions, involving perception and conception, and decision processes, involving motivation, emotion, and cognition - all in complex interaction. This cutting-edge volume reports new advances in integrating cognition, emotion, and motivation to foster a better understanding of human functioning in a wide range of situations, incorporating the most recent neuropsychological research and cognitive and affective sciences.
