"Biodata" is a book for managers and occupational psychologists involved in the selection and assessment of the workforce. It provides an account of the history and development of the use of biographical data both in the recruitment of employees by organizations and for choosing from current personnel those who should be promoted to a higher level. As well as containing tips for practitioners, "Biodata" is grounded in relevant research literature, offering a comprehensive analysis of the advantages and disadvantages of biodata in different contexts. After cognitive ability tests, the authors find that biodata measures are useful empirical predictors of employee performance. The book provides examples of recent applications and recommendations for use, as well as examples of questionnaires.

Despite a wealth of research on young people's understanding of the "physical" world, there is very little available on their understanding of the "social" world, or how they understand the functioning of society. In this study, the authors take a social-cognitive view of adolescence, focusing on the processes by which young people learn to understand other people's thoughts, emotions, intentions and behaviour. Such understanding is often partial and fragmented because social knowledge, unlike knowledge of the physical world, is often arbitrary, determined by economic and cultural variables rather than by observation and experiment. Concentrating on the social world of politics, economics, work, gender and religion, the book covers such issues as politics and government, work and unemployment, law and legislative matters, religion, marriage and the family, social class, and racial and ethnic differences.

Psychographics have been developed in the field of market research as a way to relate consumer behaviour to market choice. In analysing the personality values and life-style characteristics of consumers, researchers attempt to label and predict certain patterns of buying behaviour. Such 'psychological' segmentation of the market can provide important information about patterns of buying which is directly relevant to marketing strategists whether they are planning a marketing campaign or developing new products.This book introduces the essential elements of psychographics. It shows how researchers go about defining consumer profiles and designing successful research programmes. It looks at the way they are applied in various consumer groups including the elderly and the women's market. It uses case study material to focus on some specific products from cameras to pet food. It also provides a comprehensive review of the current literature and a critique of the field, assessing how far researchers can rely on the consumer traits they have identified and discussing the controversies that arise as personalities and life-styles are classified.
