This book defines the meaning of the several terms employed and presents systematically and in organized fashion the results of experimental findings and indications from clinical experience concerning the ego and the self. The book, therefore, becomes a text for those who wish to acquaint themselves with recent thinking and experimental work in this field. It is addressed principally to psychology students who are clinically oriented, but should serve as a basic text for any individual preparing himself for psychological counseling and psychotherapy, whether his preparation stems from psychology, psychiatry or social work.

Education should be conducted in an atmosphere in which the universal and recurrent emotional disturbances and repressive tendencies of childhood can be resolved as soon as they arise, and before they become chronic. A spotlighted issue of the times with which we find ourselves grappling in this study is that of reducing race prejudice. I wish to note at the outset, therefore, that the study was conceived and concluded not only before the Sputnik made a controversy of what should be going on in classrooms, but also before the Supreme Court made a controversy of with whom. The reader will find here a piece of action research. The "action" half of the study sought to fill a gap that in recent years has become an object of concern in the field of education. The "research" half of the study sought to fill a gap created but as yet unbridged by the many investigations of ethnic prejudice that have been prominent in social psychological journals over the past decade and a half. Part I, then, includes the description and evaluation of an educational method for deepening attitudes of self tolerance, and Part II includes the testing of hypotheses pertaining to concomitant changes in attitudes of ethnic tolerance. Since the setting of the study, its design, and procedure carry overlapping pertinence to both parts, these will be described first. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2010 APA, all rights reserved).

In this book on the psychology of ego-involvements we are attacking a problem which it seems crucial to solve if we are ever to acquire a scientifically defensible account of man's relationship to the world around him with all its natural laws, its technological developments, and its social products. Here we are only able to sketch in bold relief what appears to be the psychology of ego-involvements. Much more must be added later to complete the account. But it seems to us that the broad outline presented here will accommodate this further work without any major alterations. Evidence from a wide variety of sources, including studies from the experimental laboratory, investigations of everyday life behavior, public-opinion surveys, observational studies of children and adolescents, sociological data, and field material of anthropologists and ethnologists, has almost fallen into place of its own accord. Although we have cited rather extensive references, our job has been more one of selection than accumulation of data: in nearly every chapter, we have had to satisfy ourselves with the inclusion of only a few of the many reports, observations, or experiments that might have been mentioned. Those who are familiar with the various areas we have touched on will know the vast literature it is possible to tap. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2016 APA, all rights reserved).
