Description

Research from the neurosciences and behavioural sciences highlights the importance of individual differences in explaining human behaviour.

Individual differences in core psychological constructs, such as intelligence or personality, account for meaningful variations in a vast range of responses and behaviours.

Aspects of chess have been increasingly used in the past to evaluate a myriad of psychological theories, and several of these studies consider individual differences to be key constructs in their respective fields.

This book summarizes the research surrounding the psychology of chess from an individual- differences perspective.

The findings accumulated from nearly forty years' worth of research about chess and individual differences are brought together to show what is known - and still unknown - about the psychology of chess, with an emphasis on how people differ from one another.
