Go to the Social Psychology Network located at. Spend some time
reviewing the information contained in the web site. Based on what
you learned, what do you feel are the biggest issues in the field of
social psychology?
http://www.socialpsychology.org/
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
We are all social animals. We all realize that much of what we do
stems from our interactions with other people, but we often fail to
appreciate the power of these interactions over our behavior and
thought. If you consider it, you will be hard put to find anything you
do or think that is completely independent of your social
relationships. What about your values, or your ideas of what is right

and wrong? What about your preferences or your daily decisions? The
list could go on and on. Social psychology is the study of human
interaction and the way it affects behavior. To put it more formally,
social psychology is the scientific study of the many ways in which
interactions, interdependence, and influence among persons affect
the individual’s behavior and thought.
Dr. John Schopler (1930-2001)
Consider the above quote. Then, consider the concepts that we
have covered this week regarding social influence and the effects of
socialization on the development of one's self and self-concept.

of social psychology, both for the methods used and the outcomes of
his experiments, which documented the phenomenon that, when

of authority will usually win. Do you believe that Milgram's
experiments were ethical? Why or why not?
