About the book
In this volume, investigations representing various cognitive approaches are presented. Holloway and Hess, and Dix and Grusec represent attribution theory. Applegate et al., McGillicuddy-DeLisi, and Johnson reflect Kellyian personal construct theory. Sameroff and Feil employ a Piagetian model of cognition. Schaefer and Edgerton represent a more comprehensive view without a clearly defined cognitive model- rather, they deal with the belief issue in the terms of a broader cultural perspective. Goodnow represents an intersect between culture and cognition. Skinner's paradigm is different in that hers combines constructivism and contingency analysis. Finally, Sigel grapples with the belief construct as discussed among some of the leading theorists as well as in these chapters. The goal is to differentiate beliefs from values and attitudes.
