Social psychology is a subfield of psychology focused on how people
interact, influence one another, and make
judgments about others. This course is designed to be an introduction to the
scientific study of social psychology.
You will survey major research areas in social psychology including
social cognition, social perception, conformity, aggression, altruism,
attraction and relationships, and group dynamics. You will critically evaluate
the results, conclusions, and methods of social psychological research. You will also practice applying what you
have learned about the discipline through an oral presentation and through
writing.
