This document discusses several concepts from social psychology including self-concept, social perception, motivation, social loafing, and situation attribution. Self-concept refers to a person's mental representation of themselves, including their beliefs, descriptions, and self-schemata. Social perception involves forming impressions of others based on available information. Motivation can be extrinsic, in response to external pressures or obligations. Social loafing occurs when individuals put in less effort in a group than they would alone. Situation attribution is assuming external factors caused someone's actions rather than internal factors.

1. SOCIAL PSYCHOLOGY
Group assignment

6. • Self-Concept
• A mental representation or overall sense of "you"
• Includes the various beliefs you hold about yourself
• Is a large part of how you’d describe yourself
• May be thought of as a collection of self-schemata
SELF - CONCEPT

7. How I have used :
• Jane looked in front of the
mirror and thought that she
didn’t look good enough.
• She also thought that she is not
smart enough.
• Therefore, in the first day, she
lacked of confidence and she
went to school.

8. SOCIAL PERCEPTION
• Forming an impression of others based on available
information

9. How I have used:
• During orientation, Jane and Jessica met
John.
• When John said hi, Jessica asked Jane to
look at that guy over there.
• She said that guy looked good and cute.
• And Jane heard this information.
• She looked at John and she had a good
impression on him.
• She thought he is handsome and so he is
smart and nice.

10. MOTIVATION
• Extrinsic motivation
• Taking a certain action in response to external
pressure or obligation
• Might be done to avoid punishment or earn a
specific reward

11. How have I used:
• Jane and John became
friends.
• Jane always saw John
hanging out with pretty girls.
• And that’s when she was
motivated to make herself
pretty.

12. SOCIAL LOAFING
• Individuals make less of an effort when in a group
than they would if they were attempting to achieve
the goal on their own

13. How have I used:
• In a group assignment, the
professor assigned Jane, John,
Jessica and Joe to the same
group.
• In the group, Jessica did not do
anything instead the rest did
everything.
• Hence, Jessica is a social loafer.

14. SITUATION ATTRIBUTION
• Assuming that the cause of an action is due to
external / environmental factors

15. How I have used:
• Results came out, the professor
announced the result.
• Their group got average marks.
• Jessica was not satisfied with marks.
• She blamed on the lecturer for not giving
proper advice
• Then, Jane told Jessica that if she had
contributed, they would probably got
higher marks.
