Overview

This book approaches the field of socioemotional learning from the perspective of self-determination theory (SDT). The volume examines socioemotional learning (SEL) in schools, higher educational institutions, and workplaces. It is a timely work in its comprehensive presentation of a means of understanding motivation for one’s own work, the motivation of others, stress tolerance, team-working, conflict resolution, as well as dealing with critical situations. Socioemotional learning relates to competencies in a combination of behaviors, cognitions, and emotions that are essential for all individuals’ success, including educational and employment settings. This book presents the most comprehensive discussion of SDT perspectives on socioemotional learning in various domains, ranging from formal to informal settings. This book is an essential resource for social scientists, educators, and researchers working in education, organizational psychology, and family sociology.
