Welcome to the website for the new and groundbreaking textbook Social Groups in Action and Interaction, written by Charles Stangor, a leading researcher in Social Psychology and Group Behavior.

Written in a clear, accessible style, this textbook provides a uniquely rounded review and analysis of group dynamics by combining and integrating topics from several different perspectives:

  • Intra-group perspective: e.g. conformity, minority influence, group decision-making, leadership, and task performance.
  • Inter-group perspective: e.g. social categorization, social identity, intergroup conflict, stereotyping, prejudice and discrimination.
  • Other perspectives: e.g. culture, crowd behavior, social representations, and negotiation.

The volume is an invaluable resource for Social Psychology instructors and students on courses on group dynamics and group behavior. Its multiplicity of perspectives also makes it relevant to those in other domains, such as business, communication, education, management, social work, and sociology.

This website provides further information about the book, including sample material and additional resources for instructors and students.
