Social Psychology

GNED 2016


Course description

In this course, students develop a working knowledge of the central theories and everyday applications of social psychology. Students explore how social environments influence our view of self, and our perceptions of others. Using classic and current research students discuss topics such as interpersonal attraction, social cognition, group dynamics, discrimination, aggression and prosocial behaviour. As a result, students gain a greater understanding of how they and others think, feel, and behave across diverse social contexts.
