Social Psychology: Bringing It All Together
According to Feenstra (2013):
“Social psychologists investigate how people view themselves
and others, how they interact with and influence others, and
how people act when part of a group. Given the amount of time
spent thinking about and interacting with other people, it
follows that much of our lives are spent with the subject matter
of social psychology.”(p.xix)
This is a formal research paper and must be eight to ten pages in
length. Imagine that this paper will be used as a reference for
individuals who are completely unfamiliar with social
psychology principles. This paper will provide them with an
overview of the field, and explain the key principles associated
with its practice.
Include the following components in your research paper:
1. Discovering the Self – How do we perceive ourselves and
our interactions with others?
a. Self-concept, awareness, and self-schemas
b. The acting self
c. Self-esteem and self-efficacy
2. Thinking About Others – What judgments do we make
about other people?
a. Attributions: internal, external, explanatory style
b. Attitudes and behavior
c. Prejudice, stereotypes, discrimination
3. Influencing Others: Persuasion – How do we use the
power of persuasion?
a. Persuasion techniques
b. Characteristics of the persuader, message, audience
4. Influencing Others: Obedience and Conformity – What
factors lead us to conform and become obedient?
a. Aggressive behavior and aggression cues
b. Prosocial behavior
c. Relationship building, love, and attraction
5. Group Dynamics – What are elements of a group?
a. Types of groups
b. Consequences of Groupthink
c. Social dilemmas
After addressing the components above, reflect on the future of
social psychology. Given the immense changes that our society
is experiencing (both nationally and internationally), what do
you predict will occur in the field of social psychology? What
ground-breaking new research do you anticipate?
The Final Paper must be eight to ten pages in length (excluding
the title page, reference page, and any appendices) and it must
follow APA format, as outlined in the Ashford Writing Center.
The Final Paper will demonstrate accomplishment of course
learning outcomes through critical analysis of theory and
research.
