Larsen, Personality Psychology: Domains of Knowledge About Human Nature, 2nd Canadian Edition features the latest in Canadian research. Content has been updated throughout to ensure information is current, relevant and relatable to today’s student.

The new edition continues to adopt the trusted framework of six important domains of knowledge about personality functioning. These domains include: Dispositional, Biological, Intrapsychic, Cognitive/Experimental, Social and/Culture, and Adjustment.

This resource is ideal for degree-level Personality Psychology courses, or for any learner eager to explore personality psychology from a Canadian perspective.

Power of Process. New to the second edition, Power of Process for Personality Psychology helps students improve critical-thinking skills and allows instructors to assess these skills efficiently and effectively in an online environment. Available through Connect, preloaded journal articles are available for instructors to assign. Using a scaffolded framework such as understanding, synthesizing, and analyzing, Power of Process moves students toward higher-level thinking and analysis.

Highlight on Canadian Research. To showcase the latest Canadian contributions to personality research, each chapter now includes a Highlight on Canadian Research feature box.

Inclusive Language. The language of the text has been updated to improve gender neutrality, to remove potentially stigmatizing language, and to ensure that examples are relevant within a modern context.

Coverage of the issues relevant to Canadians. More salient cultural references have been added, with special attention paid to current social issues that many Canadians consider important.

Concept Checks. At the end of each chapter, as well as sections within, questions known as Concept Checks have been added to help students think more critically about the material.
