This compelling handbook synthesizes the growing body of research on wise interventions--brief, nonclinical strategies that are "wise" to the impact of social psychological processes on behavior. Leading authorities describe how maladaptive or pejorative interpretations can undermine people's functioning and how they can be altered to cause benefits in such areas as academic motivation and achievement, health, well-being, and personal relationships. Consistently formatted chapters review the development of each intervention, how it can be implemented, its evidence base, and implications for solving personal and societal problems. Subject areas/Key words: positive psychology, growth mindsets, changing mindsets, academic achievement, achievement motivation, behavior change, nonclinical, social psychological, psychologically wise, closing achievement gaps, conflict resolution, subjective construals, values affirmation, social norms interventions Audience: Researchers and students in social/personality, educational, and industrial/organizational psychology"-- $c Provided by publisher.
