Social psychology is the subfield of psychology that explores the many ways in which our thoughts, feelings, and behaviours are influenced by the real or implied presence of others. Topics include social thinking (e.g., non-verbal communication, attitudes & persuasion), social influence (e.g., conformity obedience & group influence), and social relations (e.g., altruism, aggression, attraction & prejudice). This course provides a broad overview of important theories and research findings on these and other related topics.
