Social Influence
: refersto the ways in which individuals change
their behavior, attitudes, or beliefs due to the
presence or actions of others.
Forms of Influence:
Conformity – adjusting behavior to align with group
standards.
Compliance – agreeing to a request even if one
privately disagrees.
Obedience – following orders from an authority figure.
5.
Social Perception
Definition:Social perception is the process of interpreting and understanding
other people’s behaviors, emotions, and intentions.
Key Aspects:
First Impressions – formed quickly and can strongly affect relationships.
Attribution – how we explain others’ behavior (internal causes like personality vs.
external causes like situation).
Stereotypes and Biases – shortcuts in perception that may lead to unfair judgments.
Example: Assuming a quiet classmate is unfriendly (internal attribution) when
in fact they may just be shy (external factor).
Importance: Accurate social perception fosters empathy, reduces conflict,
and builds healthier relationships.
6.
Social Interaction
Definition: Social interaction is the dynamic process in which
individuals act and react in relation to others. It is the
foundation of all social relationships.
Forms of Interaction:
Cooperation – working together toward a shared goal.
Competition – striving for a goal that only one can achieve.
Conflict – opposing actions or ideas leading to disagreements.
Accommodation and Compromise – adjusting to maintain harmony.
Example: Group projects in school, debates, family discussions,
or sports games.
Importance: Healthy interaction builds trust, develops
communication skills, and strengthens community bonds.
