Intro: Social Psychology Mrs. Hensley AP Psychology Spring 2015

Social Psych The study of the way people relate to others Focus on: Development & expression of attitudes People’s attributions about their own behavior and that of others The reasons why people engage in both antisocial and prosocial behavior How the presence of others influence the way people behave.

Social Cognition People go through their daily lives constantly gathering data and making predictions about what will happen next so they can plan accordingly.

Attitude Formation & Change Attitude: set of beliefs & feelings, can be positive or negative Mere Exposure Effect: more you are exposed, the more you will like it Central Route: deeply processing content of message Peripheral Route: involves other aspects, like characteristics of the communicator-person imparting message

Compliance Getting people to “comply” with your wishes Compliance StrategyDefinitionExample: Try to postpone an AP Psych Test Foot in the doorA small request is followed by a larger request. Door in the faceAn unrealistically large request is followed by a smaller request. Norms of reciprocityPeople have the tendency to feel obligated to reciprocate kind behavior.

Attribution Theory Explains how people determine the cause of what they observe. Ex: Karen and Nicole always ace AP Psych exams, therefore, you may think that they are very good at AP Psych (dispositional or person attribution) Maybe Karen and Nicole are Psych whizzes! (person-stable attribution) Or maybe Karen and Nicole study a lot for their exams (person-unstable attribution) Alternatively, may attribute success to the tests being easy (situation attribution) Mrs. Hensley is a tough teacher who happened to give an easy test (situation-unstable attribution) People have certain prejudices or ideas about others even before they meet them-which can influence the way others behave-self-fulfilling prophecy We all have stereotypes about others or have displayed or maybe even experienced prejudice and discrimination.
