Description

Do you want to better understand the people around you? Why they think and act as they do? Maybe you have noticed people don't always act rationally and are wondering why.

These are the questions that social psychology answers. It looks at how other people, groups, and wider society shape the way we think and behave.

In this course, I'll provide you with an introduction to the key topics within social psychology. We'll start at a beginner level and build up from there. We'll look at:

Understanding our self and others

Attitudes

Group processes and behaviour

Social influence and persuasion

Love and relationships

Cultural issues like racism and sexism

And much more!

It is an academic overview, but presented in a fun way with real-world examples, like what we can learn from climate change, elections, and even online dating.

I'm Chris, your instructor. I'm a psychologist, and already have tens of thousands of happy students, and I really hope you will be the next one. And, of course, it is all backed up by Udemy's 30-day money-back guarantee.
