Human behaviour refers to the wide range of behaviours exhibited by human beings and is determined by sociocultural context, attributes, emotions, values, ethics, or genetic factors. Individual understanding necessitates knowledge of the cultural environment in which the behaviour occurs. These volumes on, Human Behaviour in Sociocultural Context endeavours to address a variety of pertinent themes from a sociocultural perspective. The study of how a person’s culture and society influence their behaviour, beliefs, and feelings is known as sociocultural psychology. Sociocultural theory is relatively new idea in psychology. Its goal is to figure out what function society plays in promoting personal development. This method also emphasizes that people learn the majority of what they know through social interactions.These two edited volumes are divided broadly into seven distinct sections. Section 1 of the volume navigates “Conceptual and Methodological Issues”, Section 2 focuses on “Cognitive-Affective Aspects of Behaviour”. Whereas, Section 3 of the volume is devoted to “Socio-Developmental Issues” and Section 4 reports about “Health and Well-being”. Moreover, Section 5 talks about “Behaviour in Intercultural Context “and Section 6 discusses about “Social Cognition and Intergroup Relations”. Lastly, Section 7 reflects on “Human Behaviour in Organizations”. These volumes promises to give readers a holistic understanding of integrated research and practice.
