Social Behavior as Resource Exchange

This book complements and deepens Uriel G. Foa’s and Edna B. Foa’s 1974 presentations of resource theory of social exchange by expanding on the original roots and subsequent refinements and developments of Social Resource Theory (SRT). With its contemporary overview of the theoretical extensions of social resource theory and related empirical research, Social Behavior as Resource Exchange offers far-reaching societal implications for most behavioral and social science disciplines.
