There are many psychological approaches to addressing social
problems (e.g., clinical, developmental, cognitive,
phenomenological, neurobiological, behavioral). The social
psychological approach is only one among many. Given that this
is a social psychology course, the final paper requires evidence
of your mastery of the theories and research you've studied over
these past 11 weeks.
Your task is, therefore, (1) to review the social psychological
literature that pertains to a given social problem of your choice;
(2) to identify gaps in that literature that need to be studied; and
(3) to identify a potential research question that needs to be
studied so that you may add to the literature and advance
knowledge that can benefit society.
The Assignment (5–7 pages)
Select and describe a social problem in your field of interest.
Explain why you selected the social problem.
Research at least five journal articles related to the social
problem.
Describe two gaps in the literature related to the social problem
you selected in which you could develop further research and
justify your selection.
Through a social psychology lens, develop a research question
that a social psychologist might use to conduct research.
