Research on personality psychology is making important contributions to psychological science and applied psychology. This second edition of The Cambridge Handbook of Personality Psychology offers a one-stop resource for scientific personality psychology. It summarizes cutting-edge personality research in all its forms, including genetics, psychometrics, social-cognitive psychology, and real-world expressions, with informative and lively chapters that also highlight some areas of controversy.

Reviews for The Cambridge Handbook of Personality Psychology

'The contributing authors move well beyond the dominant paradigm of personality traits- the 'Big Five' (neuroticism, extraversion, openness to experience, agreeableness, and consciousness)- to provide a rich tapestry of theories and findings that will be relevant to many psychologists, including those who may not classify themselves as personality psychologists per se.'
