- Prejudice involves negative prejudgments or feelings toward others based on their group membership rather than their individual attributes. It can stem from emotional, social, cognitive, and personality factors.
- Stereotypes are overgeneralized beliefs about groups. They can be positive or negative and become problems when incorrectly applied to individuals. Stereotype threat describes how awareness of negative stereotypes can undermine performance.
- The fundamental attribution error involves explaining others' behaviors based mainly on internal factors rather than external situational influences. This satisfies the just-world hypothesis that people get what they deserve.
Attributions are inferences that people make about the causes of events and behavior. People make attributions in order to understand their experiences. Attributions strongly influence the way people interact with others.

prosocialbehaviour
Voluntary actions that are intended to help or benefit another individual or group of individuals”
It is performed to benefit others by helping, sharing or comforting.
ALTRUISM:
Behavior that is motivated by an unselfish concern for the welfare of others.
When one person helps another person for
no reward, and even at some cost to oneself. This cost can be time, energy, effort or wealth etc.
Altruism involves no benefit of helper and hence it is selfless help.
Conformity involves changing your behaviors in order to "fit in" or "go along" with the people around you. In some cases, this social influence might involve agreeing with or acting like the majority of people in a specific group, or it might involve behaving in a particular way in order to be perceived as "normal" by the group.
According to psychologist Gordon Allport, social psychology is a discipline that uses scientific methods "to understand and explain how the thought, feeling and behavior of individuals are influenced by the actual, imagined or implied presence of other human beings" (1985).
Briefly this field has been discussed.

Cognitive schemas can result in stereotypes and contribute to prejudice.
Stereotypes Stereotypes are beliefs about people based on their membership in a particular group. Stereotypes can be positive, negative, or neutral. Stereotypes based on gender, ethnicity, or occupation are common in many societies.

The Social Self
Three Motivations in Social Psychology
Motivation for certainty We need to feel like we understand our environment
Motivation for esteem We need to feel competent and proud of ourselves
Motivation for belonging We need pleasant and stable social connections
Three Motivations in Social Psychology
Motivation for certainty
Motivation for esteem
Motivation for belonging
The way we view our self-concept is driven largely by these
Self-concept: A system of knowledge and beliefs about our personal qualities
Self-Concept
Me
My likes
My values
My skills
My traits
My feelings
Sources of Knowledge
Write a list of 5 subjective traits that define you
I am outgoing (subjective)
I am a student (objective)
These can include your values, likes, talents, personality traits, aspirations, etc.
Next to each one: How do you know?
Knowledge Through Behavior
Self-perception theory We learn about ourselves by watching our own behaviors
I am talking in front of a classroom, so I must be outgoing
Our behaviors are more telling when:
They are freely chosen
There is no reward
Knowledge Through Behavior
Children asked to draw with new markers for 20 minutes
Condition 1: Promised a “Good player” certificate
2 weeks later, played with markers 8% of free-time
Condition 2: Not promised a certificate, but surprised with one
2 weeks later, played with markers 16% of free-time
Condition 3: Not promised a certificate, not given one
2 weeks later, played with markers 16% of free-time
Knowledge Through Behavior
Why?
Condition 1: I played with these before, but it was for a certificate, so I don’t actually like them
Condition 2 + 3: I played with these before without the promise of a certificate, so I must like them!
Knowledge Through Thoughts/Feelings
Similarly, we use our thoughts and feelings to define who we are
I am calm in this classroom right now, so I must be outgoing
Knowledge Through Feelings/Thoughts
Researchers put a female surveyor in a national park to approach men
Condition 1: Men approached in an open field/ picnic area
Condition 2: Men approached as they crossed a swaying, unstable bridge
A second researcher approaches after and asks how attractive that female was
Men in condition 2 reported being more attracted to her
Knowledge Through Feelings/Thoughts
Conclusion:
Being on the bridge elevated heartrate, sweating, and attention
Men took this to mean attraction
Knowledge From Others’ Reactions
We understand who we are through the ways others treat us/react to us.
My brother asked me to talk at his wedding, so I must be outgoing
We respond to both obvious and subtle information from others:
Obvious: Others tell me I am creative, people are impressed by what I create
Subtle: My brother asks me to help design his wedding invitations
Works more with under-developed self-concepts or new domains
Knowledge from Social Comparisons
We judge who we are by how we co.
If people consider themselves to have strong morals, why do they often turn bad? This topic elucidates why good people or even good leaders do bad things. The reason why they commit bad things can be difficult to understand. Often, we believe that leaders are honest, trustworthy and generous. However in one part of their lives, they commit serious crimes in their organization.
This is sometimes referred to as the Person–Environment Correspondence
Theory. It was originally developed by René Dawis, George England and Lloyd
Lofquist from the University of Minnesota in 1964.
The more closely a person’s abilities (skills, knowledge, experience, attitude,
behaviours, etc.) correspond with the requirements of the role or the
organisation, the more likely it is that they will perform the job well and be
perceived as satisfactory by the employer.
Structuralism was the first school of psychology and focused on breaking down mental processes into the most basic components. Researchers tried to understand the basic elements of consciousness using a method known as introspection. Wilhelm Wundt, founder of the first psychology lab, is often associated with this school of thought despite the fact that it was his student Edward B. Titchener who first coined the term to describe this school of thought.
Functionalism formed as a reaction to the structuralism and was heavily influenced by the work of William James and the evolutionary theory of Charles Darwin. Functionalists sought to explain the mental processes in a more systematic and accurate manner. Rather than focusing on the elements of consciousness, functionalists focused on the purpose of consciousness and behavior. Functionalism also emphasized individual differences, which had a profound impact on education.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
10. Masters view slaves as lazy, irresponsible, lacking ambition—as having those traits that justify slavery Once these inequalities exist, prejudice helps justify the economic and social superiority of those who have wealth and power People view enemies as subhuman and depersonalize them with labels Unequal Status
11. negative beliefs predict negative behavior (or problems in life) If a person thinks we are clever or stupid or whatever, they will treat us that way. If we are treated as if we are clever, stupid or whatever, we will act, and even become, this way. The person has thus had their prophecy about us fulfilled! This is also known as the Pygmalion Effect. The Self-Fulfilling Prophecy
12. a self-conforming apprehension that one will be evaluated based on a negative stereotype refers to being at risk of confirming, as self-characteristic, a negative stereotype about one's group (Steele & Aronson, 1995) Black college freshmen and sophomores performed more poorly on standardized tests than White students when their race was emphasized. When race was not emphasized, however, Black students performed better and equivalently with White students. The results showed that performance in academic contexts can be harmed by the awareness that one's behavior might be viewed through the lens of racial stereotypes. Stereotype Threat
13. Self-concept—our sense of who we are—contains not just personal identity (our sense of personal attributes and attitudes) but also a social identity Example: A person may identify his self a man, a Filipino, a psychology student of USJ-R, a member of the school’s student council, a chess player, and so on.. Social Identity
14.
15. The group definition of who you are—your race, religion, gender, academic major—implies a definition of who you are not. The circle that includes “us” (the ingroup) excludes “them” (the outgroup) Thus, a mere experience of being formed into groups may promote ingroup bias. Due to human quest for a positive self-concept Ingroup Bias
16. If prejudice is socially accepted, many people will follow the path of least resistance and conform to fashion They will act not so much out of a need to hate as out of a need to be liked and accepted. Conformity
18. Pain and frustration (a blocking of a goal) often evoke hostility. When the cause of our frustration is intimidating or unknown, we often redirect our hostility (displaced aggression) Frustration and Aggression(The Scapegoat Theory)

20. "On the Day of Atonement a live goat was chosen by lot. The high priest, robed in linen garments, laid both his hands on the goat's head, and confessed over it the iniquities of the children of Israel. The sins of the people thus symbolically transferred to the beast, it was taken out into the wilderness and let go. The people felt purged, and for the time being, guiltless.
22. Adorno identified the authoritarian personality type as having these characteristics: The authoritarian personality does not want to give orders, their personality type wants to take orders. People with this type of personality seek conformity, security, stability. They become anxious and insecure when events or circumstances upset their previously existing world view. They are very intolerant of any divergence from what they consider to be the normal (which is usually conceptualized in terms of their religion, race, history, nationality, culture, language, etc.)
24. One way we simplify our environment is to categorize—to organize the world by clustering objects into groups (Macrae & Bodenhausen, 2000) Perceived similarities and differences Categorization
25. Distinctive people and vivid or extreme occurrences often draw attention and distort judgment. We define people by their most distinctive traits and behaviors Distinctiveness
26. In explaining others’ actions, we frequently commit the fundamental attribution error. We attribute people’s behavior so much to their inner dispositions that we discount important situational forces. The error occurs partly because our attention focuses on the persons, and not the situation. Essentially, the fundamental attribution error involves placing a heavy emphasis on internal personality characteristics to explain someone's behavior in a given situation, rather than thinking about external situational factors. Fundamental Attribution Error (Lee Ross)
27. Imagine yourself walking down a crowded sidewalk, carrying loaded bags from shops. If someone bumps into you, you are probably inclined to think “what an idiot! That person has no respect for others, he clearly saw me!” In this assessment of the person's behavior, you fail to consider situational factors like someone else bumping into that person, or your failure to realize that your bags are taking up more room than you think they are, thus forcing people to bump into you as they try to get around you. Fundamental Attribution Error Examples
28. On a specific day a waitress is talking rude to her customers. The customers now think that she is a really bad person. What the customers don't realize is that usually most people find the waitress friendly but today the waitress is experiencing one of the hardest days in her life. Her husband just left her for another woman, and she just lost her son in a car wreck. If the customers were aware of the problems the waitress just had, they actually wouldn't mind her negative attitude as much considering her current state. Fundamental Attribution Error Examples
29. the belief that people get what they deserve and deserve what they get (Melvin Lerner,1977) Attributing failures to dispositional causes rather than situational causes, which are unchangeable and uncontrollable, satisfies our need to believe that the world is fair and we have control over our life. We are motivated to see a just world because this reduces our perceived threats, gives us a sense of security, helps us find meaning in difficult and unsettling circumstances, and benefits us psychologically. Unfortunately, the just world hypothesis also results in a tendency for people to blame and disparage victims of a tragedy or an accident, such as victims of rape and domestic abuse to reassure themselves of their insusceptibility to such events. People may even go to such extremes as the victim's faults in "past life" to pursue justification for their bad outcome. Just-World Phenomenon(Linda Carli et.al,1999)
