At the crossroads of psychology, cognition, and human behaviour, the Nebraska Symposium on Motivation: 1971 presents a landmark collection of scholarly papers drawn from one of the longest-running and most prestigious academic series in psychological research. Edited by James K. Cole, this volume assembles contributions from an distinguished roster of researchers — including David Elkind, Langdon E. Longstreth, Margaret Donaldson, Albert Mehrabian, Ralph Exline, and Paul Ekman — each bringing a distinct and rigorous perspective to bear on the multifaceted nature of human motivation. The symposium's 1971 edition grapples with questions of cognitive development, nonverbal communication, and emotional expression, situating these inquiries within the broader landscape of mid-century behavioural science. The Nebraska Symposium on Motivation series, published annually by the University of Nebraska Press since 1953, has long served as an essential forum for synthesising cutting-edge psychological theory with empirical research, and this volume is no exception. The contributions of Ekman and Mehrabian alone — pioneers in the study of nonverbal cues and emotional encoding — make this an indispensable resource for scholars of social psychology and interpersonal communication. Authoritative in scope yet precise in argument, this collection remains a compelling document of a pivotal era in psychological thought, raising questions about the inner drivers of human action that continue to resonate today.
