Social psychologists strive to understand how other people influence our thoughts, feelings and behavior. This course will introduce students to theories and research that are an important part of our everyday lives, including topics such as intimate relationships, conformity, persuasion and reasons for aggressive behavior. Throughout this course, students will explore the interplay between people and their environment (i.e. the development of self, social influences on individuals, group interactions and larger social systems).
