ACKNOWLEDGEMENT! 
! 
First and foremost, we would like to thank our lecturer, Mr Shankar for his 
valuable guidance and advice throughout this assignment. He inspired us 
greatly to work in this assignment. His willingness to motivate us contributed 
tremendously to our assignment. We also would like to thank the participants 
involved in this assignment for their cooperation and understandings.
! 
INTRODUCTION! 
! 
In a group of five, we were required to conduct a social psychology conceptual 
video clip and required to do a presentation. Group conceptual topics are based on 
integrating theory to the practical. We are encouraged to use materials and theories 
from various topics taught and discussed in class. ! 
! 
The objective of this project are to allow students to implement the concepts and 
theories learned in class to practical environments and to let students to be able to 
conduct a simple social psychology experiment. Furthermore, enhance teamwork 
ability and leadership within a group of students. This project also allow students to 
apply critical thinking in application of real world experiences.! 
! 
As for our group, we carried out various social experiments that related to five 
concepts which are stereotype, mere exposure effect, fear-based appeals, 
bystander effect and bias.
! 
METHOD! 
(a) Apparatus/ Materials! 
! 
Laptop: Slides that we prepared which include pictures of different races 
of local and international students were showed to participants in order 
to let them see clearly and make choices from the pictures shown.! 
! 
Camera: A DSLR camera is used to record video and the experiments 
that we have carried out.! 
! 
Smartphone: We used smartphone to record the participants’ voice as a 
more accurate and reliable method of documentation.! 
! 
Wallet and papers: Both of the items were accidentally dropped to carry 
out social experiment which is to test the participants whether they are 
willing to help out.! 
! 
! 
! 
!
(b) Procedures! 
! 
1. Confirming five concepts! 
A meeting was conducted to discuss the concepts that will be used in our 
conceptual video. After discussion, the concepts we had chosen were mere 
exposure effect, fear-based appeals, bystander effect, bias and stereotype.! 
! 
2. Planning social experiments! 
After figuring out the concepts that will be used in our video, each of us came 
out with some ideas on the experiments. For mere exposure effect and fear-based 
appeals concept, we will ask smokers for their opinions towards 
picture-based warning labels on cigarette packs. As for bystander effect, our 
group member, Aswad will pretend that he drop his wallet and the other group 
member, Chia Hong will act as a thief who steals Aswad’s wallet. The 
purpose of this social experiment is to test the willingness of passerby to lend 
a hand. Furthermore, for bias and stereotype, we will again ask paticipants’ 
opinion on which group of students they are more likely to group with in a 
group assignment based on different races of local and international students.! 
! 
3. Shooting conceptual video! 
We shot the video all around campus. The video shooting has taken place at 
Syopz Mall, in front of library, beside The Grand Hall and classroom of Block 
E.! 
! 
4. Writing a report! 
One of our group member wrote a report based on the format given by 
lecturer.! 
!
DISCUSSION! 
We have included five concepts in this conceptual video which comprise of 
concepts of mere exposure effect, fear-based appeals, bystander effect, bias 
and stereotype.! 
! 
1. Mere Exposure Effect is a psychological phenomenon whereby people 
feel a preference for people or things simply because they are familiar. 
Also known as the exposure effect and the familiarity principle. This 
concept was demonstrated in our video where most of the smokers felt 
much better towards picture-based warning labels on the cigarette packs 
compared to last few years. They found it scary at first but after some time 
they got used to it.! 
! 
2. Fear-based Appeals in advertising is a message that is designed to 
scare the intended audience by describing a serious threat to them. The 
advertising tactic is to motivate the intended audience to engage or not 
engage in certain behaviour based upon a fear. For instance, health 
messages on cigarette packages deliver important information directly to 
smokers. The message is repeated and reinforced every time a smoker 
reaches for a cigarette. Smokers believe these messages more and 
remember them better than they do public education campaigns.! 
! 
3. Bystander Effect occurs when the presence of others hinders an 
individual from intervening in an emergency situation. When there is an 
emergency, the more bystanders there are, the less likely it is that any of 
them will actually help. Pluralistic ignorance is where they assume nothing 
is wrong because nobody else looks concerned. In the video, we have 
carried out experiments based on this concept. One of the experiments 
was that we have ester the willingness of passer-by to help out whey they 
witness someone steals another person’s wallet. The result was the 
passer-by didn't actually help out, instead they only point and stare at the 
situation.!
4. Bias is an inclination of temperament or outlook to present or hold a 
partial perspective, often accompanied by a refused to even consider the 
possible merits of alternative points of view. People may be biased toward 
or against an individual, a race, a religion, a social class, a political party, 
or a species. Biased means one-sided, lacking a neutral viewpoint, not 
having an open mind. Bias can come in many forms and is often 
considered to be synonymous with prejudice or bigotry. We have used 
this concept in our video, we ask participants’ for their opinions whether 
they are more likely to group with local or international students for a 
group assignment. The results were however, varied depending on the 
individual. ! 
! 
5. Stereotype is a thought that can be adopted about specific types of 
individuals or certain ways of doing things. These thoughts or beliefs may 
or may not accurately reflect reality. By stereotyping we infer that a person 
has a whole range of characteristics and abilities that we assume all 
members of that group have. Stereotypes lead to social categorisation, 
which is one of the reasons for prejudice attitudes which leads to in-groups 
and out-groups. For instance, we investigate stereotypes by 
preparing pictures of different group and races of local and international 
students in order to let participants to choose which are the students they 
would be more willing to group with in a group assignment.!

He inspired us greatly to work in this assignment. His willingness to motivate us contributed tremendously to our assignment. We also would like to thank the participants involved in this assignment for their cooperation and understandings.
  • 4. ! INTRODUCTION! ! In a group of five, we were required to conduct a social psychology conceptual video clip and required to do a presentation. Group conceptual topics are based on integrating theory to the practical. We are encouraged to use materials and theories from various topics taught and discussed in class. ! ! The objective of this project are to allow students to implement the concepts and theories learned in class to practical environments and to let students to be able to conduct a simple social psychology experiment. Furthermore, enhance teamwork ability and leadership within a group of students. This project also allow students to apply critical thinking in application of real world experiences.! ! As for our group, we carried out various social experiments that related to five concepts which are stereotype, mere exposure effect, fear-based appeals, bystander effect and bias.
  • 5. ! METHOD! (a) Apparatus/ Materials! ! Laptop: Slides that we prepared which include pictures of different races of local and international students were showed to participants in order to let them see clearly and make choices from the pictures shown.! !

  • 6. (b) Procedures! ! 1. Confirming five concepts! A meeting was conducted to discuss the concepts that will be used in our conceptual video. After discussion, the concepts we had chosen were mere exposure effect, fear-based appeals, bystander effect, bias and stereotype.! ! 2. Planning social experiments! After figuring out the concepts that will be used in our video, each of us came out with some ideas on the experiments. For mere exposure effect and fear-based appeals concept, we will ask smokers for their opinions towards picture-based warning labels on cigarette packs. As for bystander effect, our group member, Aswad will pretend that he drop his wallet and the other group member, Chia Hong will act as a thief who steals Aswad’s wallet. The purpose of this social experiment is to test the willingness of passerby to lend a hand. Furthermore, for bias and stereotype, we will again ask paticipants’ opinion on which group of students they are more likely to group with in a group assignment based on different races of local and international students.! ! 3. Shooting conceptual video! We shot the video all around campus. The video shooting has taken place at Syopz Mall, in front of library, beside The Grand Hall and classroom of Block E.! ! 4. Writing a report! One of our group member wrote a report based on the format given by lecturer.! !
  • 7. DISCUSSION! We have included five concepts in this conceptual video which comprise of concepts of mere exposure effect, fear-based appeals, bystander effect, bias and stereotype.! ! 1. Mere Exposure Effect is a psychological phenomenon whereby people feel a preference for people or things simply because they are familiar. Also known as the exposure effect and the familiarity principle. This concept was demonstrated in our video where most of the smokers felt much better towards picture-based warning labels on the cigarette packs compared to last few years. They found it scary at first but after some time they got used to it.! ! 2. Fear-based Appeals in advertising is a message that is designed to scare the intended audience by describing a serious threat to them. The advertising tactic is to motivate the intended audience to engage or not engage in certain behaviour based upon a fear. For instance, health messages on cigarette packages deliver important information directly to smokers. The message is repeated and reinforced every time a smoker reaches for a cigarette. Smokers believe these messages more and remember them better than they do public education campaigns.! ! 3. Bystander Effect occurs when the presence of others hinders an individual from intervening in an emergency situation. When there is an emergency, the more bystanders there are, the less likely it is that any of them will actually help. Pluralistic ignorance is where they assume nothing is wrong because nobody else looks concerned. In the video, we have carried out experiments based on this concept. One of the experiments was that we have ester the willingness of passer-by to help out whey they witness someone steals another person’s wallet. The result was the passer-by didn't actually help out, instead they only point and stare at the situation.!
  • 8. 4. Bias is an inclination of temperament or outlook to present or hold a partial perspective, often accompanied by a refused to even consider the possible merits of alternative points of view. People may be biased toward or against an individual, a race, a religion, a social class, a political party, or a species. Biased means one-sided, lacking a neutral viewpoint, not having an open mind. Bias can come in many forms and is often considered to be synonymous with prejudice or bigotry. We have used this concept in our video, we ask participants’ for their opinions whether they are more likely to group with local or international students for a group assignment. The results were however, varied depending on the individual. ! ! 5. Stereotype is a thought that can be adopted about specific types of individuals or certain ways of doing things. These thoughts or beliefs may or may not accurately reflect reality. By stereotyping we infer that a person has a whole range of characteristics and abilities that we assume all members of that group have. Stereotypes lead to social categorisation, which is one of the reasons for prejudice attitudes which leads to in-groups and out-groups. For instance, we investigate stereotypes by preparing pictures of different group and races of local and international students in order to let participants to choose which are the students they would be more willing to group with in a group assignment.! ! !
