Contributor Bio(s): Verplanken, Bas: - Professor of Social Psychology at the University of Bath. My research is in the broader domain of attitudes and attitude-behavior relations. I have a particular interst in habits (both behavioral and mental habits), values, the self, and self-regulation. I apply these interests in areas such as health, consumer and environmental behavior. http: //www.bath.ac.uk/profiles/faculty-of-humanities-social-sciences-director-of-doctoral-studies-bas-verplanken/ Haddock, Geoffrey: - Professor of Psychology, Cardiff University I have a number of interests within the study of attitudes, including the role of affective and cognitive processes in attitudes, the impact on mindfulness on attitudes and attitude change, how individual differences influence attitude processes, and how reading persuasive material in different media formats influences attitudes and attitude change. Other research helps to understand how social values get translated into action. http: //psych.cf.ac.uk/contactsandpeople/haddockgg.php |
