作者简介

　　自从获得爱荷华大学的博士学位之后，戴维?迈尔斯就在密歇根的霍普学院工作，成为那里的John Dirk Werkman
心理学教授，并且开设了多门社会心理学的课程。霍普学院的学生邀请他在毕业典礼上发言并评选他为“最杰出的教授”。
　　迈尔斯曾在30多种科学书籍和期刊上发表过多篇论文，包括《科学》、《美国科学家》、《心理科学》和《美国心理学家》等。除了学术著作和教科书，同时他还致力于把心理科学介绍给广大民众。他在许多杂志上发表过科普类文章，如《今日教育》和《科学美国人》。
　　他撰写的《心理学》（本书由著名心理学家黄希庭教授组织翻译并审校，将于２006年出版，敬请期待）是当今最畅销的心理学导论性教材，600多万学生在用它来学习心理学。同样，这本《社会心理学》在过去的10年中占了将近30%的市场份额（社会心理学类书籍）。正如他在《心理学》第7版前言中所写的，“我希望以一种充满热情的、富有个性的方式来讲述心理学，而不仅仅用一种严谨的科学方式”。这应该就是他的教材如此受欢迎的秘诀吧。
　　戴维?迈尔斯还是城市人际关系委员会的主席，帮助创建了一个快速发展的协助中心，以扶助贫困家庭，同时他还去过数以百计的大学和社区做演讲。凭借自己丰富的人生经历，他还写了有关听力丧失的一些文章和一本书（《无声的世界》），而且他还倡导在美国进行一场助听技术革命（hearingloop.org）。

章节摘录

版权页：   插图：   Dozens of studies in Europe, North America, Australia, and South Africa showthat mistakes also subside when witnesses simply make individual yes or no judg-ments in response to a sequence of people （Lindsay & Wells, 1985; Meissner & oth-ers, 2005; Steblay & others, 2001）. A simultaneous lineup tempts people to pick theperson who, among the lineup members, most resembles the perpetrator. Wit-nesses viewing just one suspect at a hme are less likely to make false identifications.If witnesses view a group of photos or people simultaneously, they are more likelyto choose whoever most resembles the culprit. （When not given a same-race lineup,witnesses may pick someone of the culprit's race, especially when it's a differentrace from their own （Wells & Olson, 2001）.） With a "sequential lineup," eyewit-nesses compare each person with their memory of the culprit and make an absolutedecision-match or no-match （Gronlund, 2004a, 2004b）. These no-cost procedures make police lineups more like good experiments.They contain a control group （a no-suspect lineup or a lineup in which mock wit-nesses try to guess the suspect based merely on a general description）. They havean experimenter who is blind to the hypothesis （an officer who doesn-tyknowwhich person is the suspect）. Questions are scripted and neutral, so they don'tsubtly demand a particular response （the procedure doesn't imply the culprit isin the lineup）. And they prohibit confidence-inflating post-lineup comments（"you got him"） prior to trial testimony. Such procedures greatly reduce the nat-ural human confirmation bias （having an idea and seeking confirming evi-dence）. Lineups can also now be effectively administered by computers （MacLin& others, 2005）. Although procedures such as double-blind testing are common in psycholog-ical science, they are still uncommon in criminal procedures （Wells & Olson,2003）. But their time may be coming. New Jersey's attorney general has man-dated statewide blind testing （to avoid steering witnesses toward suspects） andsequentiallineups （to minimize simply comparing people and choosing the per-son who most resembles the one they saw commit a crime） （Kolata & Peterson,2001; Wells & others, 2002）. Police might also use a new procedure tested by SeanPryke, Rod Lindsay, and colleagues （2004）. They invited students to identify aprior class visitor from multiple lineups that separately presented face, body,and voice samples. Their finding: An eyewitness who consistently identified thesame suspect-by face, by body, and byy voice-was nearly always an accurateeyewitness.

编辑推荐

《社会心理学(英文版本)(第9版)》是一本将生活和理论完美结合的经典之作，它是指导人们认识自我、了解社会、理解自己与社会之间关系的最佳书籍。当我最初应邀撰写《社会心理学》时。我立刻想到此书应该具有坚实的科学性和温暖的人性，具有事实精确性和智力启发性。作为作者，传播这门学科的知识对我来说是一件很快乐的事。如果我的礼物给你带来了任何的愉悦、激励和充实感的话，我的快乐就会倍增。 ——戴维•迈尔斯
