The entire front cover of Basic and Applied Social Psychology is used because the image is a publication cover, a form of product packaging, the entire image is needed to identify the product, properly convey the meaning and branding intended, and avoid tarnishing or misrepresenting the image.

The copy is of sufficient resolution for commentary and identification but lower resolution than the original cover. Copies made from it will be of inferior quality, unsuitable as artwork on pirate versions or other uses that would compete with the commercial purpose of the original artwork.

The image is placed in the infobox at the top of the article discussing the work, to show the primary visual image associated with the work, and to help the user quickly identify the work and know they have found what they are looking for.

Replaceability = As a cover, the image is not replaceable by free content; any other image that shows the packaging of the item would also be copyrighted, and any version that is not true to the original would be inadequate for identification or commentary.

Infobox = Using a different image in the infobox would be misleading as to the identity of the work.
