Unit: 14 Social Psychology

XIV. Social Psychology (810%) This part of the course focuses on how individuals relate
to one another in social situations. Social psychologists study social attitudes, social
influence, and other social phenomena. AP students in psychology should be able to do
the following:
Apply attribution theory to explain motives (e.g., fundamental attribution error, self-serving bias).
Describe the structure and function of different kinds of group behavior (e.g., deindividuation, group
polarization).
Explain how individuals respond to expectations of others, including groupthink, conformity, and
obedience to authority.
Discuss attitudes and how they change (e.g., central route to persuasion).
Predict the impact of the presence of others on individual behavior (e.g., bystander effect, social
facilitation).
Describe processes that contribute to differential treatment of group members (e.g., in-group/out-group
dynamics, ethnocentrism, prejudice).
Articulate the impact of social and cultural categories (e.g., gender, race, ethnicity) on self-concept and
relations with others.
Anticipate the impact of behavior on a self-fulfilling prophecy.
Describe the variables that contribute to altruism, aggression, and attraction.
Discuss attitude formation and change, including persuasion strategies and cognitive dissonance.
Identify important figures in social psychology
(e.g., Solomon Asch, Leon Festinger, Stanley
Milgram, Philip Zimbardo).
