Description: | This Handbook is one tangible product of a life-long affaire. When I was re-i ntroduced to social p sychology, as a fi rst-semester senior psychology major, it was love at fi rst sight. I majored in psychology because I wanted to understand human social behavior. I had taken an introductory sociology course as a freshman. The venerable Lindesmith and Strauss was our text, and I enjoyed both the text and the course. I thought at the time that it was the psychology of the material that attracted me. Two years later, after several psychology courses, I walked into social psychology and realized it was the social that attracted me. I never looked back. Later in that semester I quizzed my faculty mentors and learned that there were three places where I could get an education in social psychology : at Stanford with Leon Festinger, at Columbia, and at Michigan, in the joint, interdisciplinary program directed by Ted Newcomb. Fortunately, I arrived in Ann Arbor in the fall of 1963 and spent the next 4 years taking courses and seminars in social psychology, taught by faculty in both the sociology and psychology departments. I especially value the opportunity that I had to learn from and work with Dan Katz, Herb Kelman, and Ted Newcomb during those years |
