 Название: Psychology of the Language Learner: Individual Differeces in Second Language Acquisition Автор: Zoltan Dornyei Издательство: Lawrence Erlbaum Associates Год: 2005 Формат: pdf Страниц: 283 Размер: 5 MB Язык: English Research results over the past decades have consistently demonstrated that a key reason why many second language learners fail--while some learners do better with less effort--lies in various learner attributes such as personality traits, motivation, or language aptitude. In psychology, these attributes have traditionally been called ''individual differences.'' The scope of individual learner differences is broad--ranging from creativity to learner styles and anxiety--yet there is no current, comprehensive, and unified volume that provides an overview of the considerable amount of research conducted on various language learner differences, until now. Each chapter in this new volume focuses on a different individual difference variable. Besides a review of the relevant second language literature, ZoltГЎn DГ¶rnyei presents a concise overview of the psychological research involving each topic. A key concern for the author has been to define the various learner factors as measurable constructs and therefore the discussion includes a summary of the most famous tests and questionnaires in each domain. A wide range of readers will benefit from this book--students in linguistics, applied linguistics, modern languages, and psychology programs; second language teachers participating in in-service training courses; and researchers in second language acquisition and psychology.

 Название: The Self, the Soul and the Psychology of Good and Evil (Routledge Studies in Ethics and Moral Theory) Автор: Ilham Dilman Издательство: Routledge Год: 2005 Формат: pdf Страниц: 175 Размер: 648 kB Язык: English The way an individual's psychology is intertwined with their morality is the subject of this fascinating book from the pen of the late Ilham Dilman. Dilman convincingly argues that evil, though it cannot be reduced to psychological terms (it is a moral concept) is explicable in terms of an individual person's psychology. Goodness, by contrast, comes from the person and not their psychology. Philosophers the world over will want to read this book and see how Dilman skilfully defends his arguments.

Koger Издательство: Psychology Press Год: 2003 Формат: pdf Страниц: 306 Размер: 16 MB Язык: English the subject is an important one. when the authors - professors none the less - end the book by suggesting prayer as way to help the environment - and pepper the book with personal vignettes about communing with nature, meditation retreats and such you wonder what the point was. i am a psychologist and spent good money because i wanted to learn something about the topic. i wish i could get my $ refunded. a joke it is not. but a big let down: yes. do NOT bother do not buy!

 Название: Designing and Engineering Time: The Psychology of Time Perception in Software Автор: Steven C. Seow Издательство: Addison-Wesley Professional Год: 2008 Формат: chm Страниц: 224 Размер: 4 MB Язык: English One of the reviewers thought this book was a gem for experienced programmers, I totally disagree. I'm an experienced programmer and I suggested this book for a book club at work. We are all experienced programmers. But I did not find this book that much helpful. I would rather have spent the time it took to read the book doing something else... like reading About Face 3: The Essentials of Interaction Design (again).I probably found two or three concepts interesting throughout the book. In general I think it already states the obvious, uses too much comparisons and has too much images (just for the sake of it - without adding value). A MSDN article with say, 20 pages, would have been more than enough instead of a 191 p book. I expected to get some examples from real life software and to get more insight in software and how to handle time.After reading the book I wanted to get the sense of "Hey! We can do even better software, now let's go and do it!" But instead the book left me feeling like I had wasted my time reading it from cover to cover.When reading Designing and Enginering Time I though that it appears to be a report from a student, like a master thesis report. When discussing the book with a colleague in the book club he said the exact same thing! The last two chapters was ok but it is still a "Don't like it" from me.
