Psychology in India Revisited, a three volume set, constitutes a comprehensive review of recent Indian research on psychology. This review reflects the diversity of current research interests and critically evaluates the extent to which the discipline of psychology has been responsive to the Indian sociocultural reality. Divided thematically, the three volumes provide a focused treatment of a broad range of topics of theoretical, conceptual and methodological importance as also of empirical topicality.

The focus of this, the third volume, is on basic and applied social-psychological research. It provides an in-depth analysis of a number of critical areas important to an understanding of social organizational processes.
