The Fundamental Attribution Error
8
Attributing Behavior to Persons or to Situations
Attribution theory theory that we explain someone’s behavior by crediting either the situation or the person’s disposition. Fritz Heider (1958) Dispositional vs. situational attribution “c” Fundamental attribution error “c” the tendency for observers, when analyzing another’s behavior, to underestimate the impact of the situation & to overestimate the impact of personal disposition. Self-serving bias- people accept more responsibility for good deeds than bad; & for successes more than failures /attribution. 3:25

Attitudes and Actions
10
Attitudes & Actions ed Attitude A feeling based on beliefs. Predisposes a persons reactions to objects, other people, & events. Attitudes: affect actions, often predict & follow behaviors e.g. Central route persuasion - attitude changes path in which interested people focus on the arguments & respond with favorable thoughts. Peripheral route persuasion attitude changes path in which people are influenced by incidental cues, such as such as a speaker’s attractiveness. If we believe a person is mean, we may feel dislike for the person & act in an unfriendly manner. imperfectly because other factors, including the external situation, also influence behavior. Attitudes influence on behavior is BEST when other influences are weak & attitude is specific to the behavior, & we are keenly aware of our attitudes
11
Actions Can Affect Attitudes
Not only do people stand for what they believe in (attitude), they start believing in what they stand for. So… “fake it ‘til ya make it” Cooperative actions can lead to mutual liking (beliefs).
12
DOING… BECOMES BELIEVING
Attitudes & Actions Attitudes & Actions Actions Affect Attitudes: The Foot-in-the-Door Phenomenon the tendency for people who have first agreed to a small request to comply later with a larger request….. b/c doing becomes believing “start small & build”– Small Request >>>> Large Request performing a trivial act makes the next act easier . Great for manipulations & mind control! Works for good & bad deeds (Civil Rights & Nazism) DOING… BECOMES BELIEVING
13
Attitudes & Actions Actions Affect Attitudes
Role-Playing Affects Attitudes Role -a set of expectations (norms) about a social position, defining how those in the position ought to behave. New roles may feel phony at first , but then become the NORM 200_Zimbardo_Stanford.mp4 8min What we DO, we gradually BECOME 199_Stanford_situation.mp4 13 min debrief Stanford prison study- Zimbardo (72’) assigned the roles of guards & prisoners to random students & found that guards & prisoners developed role- appropriate attitudes. 204_Social_Influence.mp :28- Abu Ghraib
14
Attitudes & Actions Actions Affect Attitudes
Cognitive Dissonance: Relief From Tension –when attitudes & actions are opposed, we experience tension. Cognitive dissonance theory we act to reduce the discomfort (dissonance) we feel when 2 of our thoughts (cognitions) are inconsistent. EX: when our awareness of our attitudes & of our actions clash, we can reduce the resulting dissonance by changing our attitudes. “Attitudes follow behavior”- we can not directly control of all our feelings, we can influence them by altering our behavior. Pretense becomes reality
15
Cognitive Dissonance

Module 75: Conformity & Obedience
19
Conformity: Complying With Social Pressures
20
Conformity & Obedience
Behavior is contagious, modeled by one followed by another. We follow behavior of others to conform. Other behaviors may be an expression of compliance (obedience) toward authority. Preview Question 3: What do experiments on conformity and compliance reveal about the power of social influence? Conformity Obedience

Complying With Social Pressures Automatic Mimicry
Conformity: Complying With Social Pressures Automatic Mimicry Chameleon effect – we are NATURAL mimics, unconsciously mimicking others. We feel happier around happy people & vice versa chameleon effect.mp4 psychological experiment.mp4 Mood linkage studies of GROUPS confirm a sharing of up & down moods within groups.

Psychological and Social-Cultural Factors in Aggression
74
Aggression Psychological & Social-Cultural Factors in Aggression
Aversive Events (situation matters) Frustration-aggression principle principle that frustration (the blocking of an attempt to achieve some goal) creates anger, which can generate aggression. Fight or flight reaction- prepares us for aggressive reactions Ostracism: rejection- induced aggression Social & cultural influences – learning can alter natural reactions Aggression-replacement program Trains how to control anger, & encourages (replace it with) more thoughtful moral reasoning

The media portrays social scripts & generates mental tapes in the minds of the viewers. When confronted with new situations individuals may rely on such social scripts. If social scripts are violent in nature, people may act them out.

Conflict and Peacemaking
106
Conflict How do Social traps and mirror-image perception fuel social conflict?
Conflict is perceived as an incompatibility of actions, goals, or ideas. Elements of conflict are the same at all levels. People become deeply involved in potentially destructive social processes that have undesirable effects. Preview Question 15: How do social traps and mirror-image perceptions fuel social conflict?
107
Conflict & Peacemaking
Social Trap a situation in which the conflicting parties, by each rationally pursuing their self-interest, become caught in mutually destructive behavior. Non-zero sum game
108
Enemy Perceptions People in conflict form diabolical images of one another. George Bush “Evil” Saddam Hussein “Wicked Pharaoh”
109
Conflict and Peacemaking Elements of Conflict: Enemy Perceptions
Mirror-image perceptions mutual views often held by conflicting people, as when each side sees itself as ethical and peaceful and views the other side as evil and aggressive. Self-fulfilling prophecy a belief that leads to its own fulfillment.
110
Conflict & Peacemaking Enemy Perceptions often lead to destructive behavior
Contact- can be good or bad. It’s the type of contact that’s important. Noncompetitive & btwn parties of equal status= helpful Mere exposure is not enough, desegregation lead to self-segregation not integration. Mirror-image perceptions get in the way Continued conflict & misperception lead to Self-fulfilling prophecy
111
Conflict & Peacemaking
Cooperation – 1st step to resolving conflict Superordinate goals shared goals that override differences among people & require their cooperation US/THEM: Isolation & competition = enemies of strangers WE: Shared predicaments & goals = reconciled enemies Communication- discussion of a dilemma & negotiation increases cooperation Conciliation- small conciliatory gestures (eg. Smile, touch, word) may edge down tension…. So communication & understanding can begin GRIT Graduated & Reciprocated Initiatives in Tension-Reduction – a strategy designed to decrease international tensions.

Teacher Information Types of Files Animation
This presentation has been saved as a “basic” Powerpoint file. While this file format placed a few limitations on the presentation, it insured the file would be compatible with the many versions of Powerpoint teachers use. To add functionality to the presentation, teachers may want to save the file for their specific version of Powerpoint. Animation Once again, to insure compatibility with all versions of Powerpoint, none of the slides are animated. To increase student interest, it is suggested teachers animate the slides wherever possible. Adding slides to this presentation Teachers are encouraged to adapt this presentation to their personal teaching style. To help keep a sense of continuity, blank slides which can be copied and pasted to a specific location in the presentation follow this “Teacher Information” section.
114
Teacher Information Unit Coding
Just as Myers’ Psychology for AP 2e is color coded to the College Board AP Psychology Course Description (Acorn Book) Units, so are these Powerpoints. The primary background color of each slide indicates the specific textbook unit. Psychology’s History and Approaches Research Methods Biological Bases of Behavior Sensation and Perception States of Consciousness Learning Cognition Motivation, Emotion, and Stress Developmental Psychology Personality Testing and Individual Differences Abnormal Psychology Treatment of Abnormal Behavior Social Psychology

Teacher Information Hyperlink Slides - This presentation contain two types of hyperlinks. Hyperlinks can be identified by the text being underlined and a different color (usually purple). Unit subsections hyperlinks: Immediately after the unit title and module title slide, a page can be found listing all of the unit’s subsections. While in slide show mode, clicking on any of these hyperlinks will take the user directly to the beginning of that subsection. Bold print term hyperlinks: Every bold print term from the unit is included in this presentation as a hyperlink. While in slide show mode, clicking on any of the hyperlinks will take the user to a slide containing the formal definition of the term. Clicking on the “arrow” in the bottom left corner of the definition slide will take the user back to the original point in the presentation. These hyperlinks were included for teachers who want students to see or copy down the exact definition as stated in the text. Most teachers prefer the definitions not be included to prevent students from only “copying down what is on the screen” and not actively listening to the presentation. For teachers who continually use the Bold Print Term Hyperlinks option, please contact the author using the address on the next slide to learn a technique to expedite the returning to the original point in the presentation.
116
Teacher Information Continuity slides
Throughout this presentation there are slides, usually of graphics or tables, that build on one another. These are included for three purposes. By presenting information in small chunks, students will find it easier to process and remember the concepts. By continually changing slides, students will stay interested in the presentation. To facilitate class discussion and critical thinking. Students should be encouraged to think about “what might come next” in the series of slides. Please feel free to contact me at with any questions, concerns, suggestions, etc. regarding these presentations. Kent Korek Germantown High School Germantown, WI 53022
