Reviews
'This book is a treasure. After decades of work by psychologists illuminating processes that unfold in the minds of thinkers, the volume combines that literature with the most important of psychological phenomena: action. At just the right time, Dolores Albarracin has delivered a tour de force. It is a must for anyone interested in changing the world for the better.' Jon A. Krosnick, Frederic O.

Its multidisciplinary perspective covers research from psychology, communication, public health, business studies, and environmental sciences. The reader can use this cutting-edge approach to design and interpret effects of behavioral change interventions as well as replicate the materials and methods implemented to study them. The author provides an organized set of principles that take the reader from the formation of attitudes and goals, to the structure of action and inaction. It also reflects on how cognitive processes explain excesses of action while inaction persists elsewhere. This practical guide summarises the best practices persuasion and behavioral interventions to promote changes in health, consumer, and social behaviors., This book explains how actions and inactions change in social contexts, connecting psychological research with problems of interest in communication, public health, economics, organizational and consumer behavior, and environmental sciences.

    Mistakenly ordered a paperback that I thought was a hardcover, not sellers fault; it was described properly on the listing. Seller still processed a refund the day I went to return the item and let me keep the item anyway. A+++ service. Book arrived quickly in great condition and for a great price. Thank you so much! Amazing seller!

    seller was communicative about my shipment, media mail took a while and tracking wasn't updated frequently, but seller communicated to me very quickly on status. the item came new and wrapped as described, though the packaging in it was packed wasn't sturdy and falling apart when it got to me.
