Social Psychology

Catalog description

Social psychology is the science of how we think about, influence, and relate to each other. Social psychology theory and research helps us understand why people behave, think, and feel the way they do in these situations. Topics include attitude and belief formation, interpersonal relations, persuasion, conformity, prejudice/stereotypes, group processes, and close relationships. Students will actively apply topics to their everyday lives with brief application papers and activities.
