      abstract = {"On an everyday basis, we communicate with one another  using various technological mediums, such as text  messaging, social networking tools and electronic mail, in  work, educational and personal settings. As a consequence  of the increasing frequency of use and importance of  computer-supported interaction, social scientists in  particular have heeded the call to understand the social  processes involved in such interactions. In this volume,  the editors explore how aspects of a situation interact  with characteristics of a person to help explain our  technologically-supported social interactions. The  person-by-situation interaction perspective recognizes the  powerful role of the situation and social forces on  behavior, thought and emotion, but also acknowledges the  importance of person variables in explaining social  interaction, including power and gender, social influence,  truth and deception, ostracism and leadership. This  important study is of great relevance to modern readers,  who are more and more frequently using technology to  communicate with one another"--},
