Assignment: How do you think this illusory correlation came about and what can be done in the future to combat them?
1. We all have a tendency to make illusory correlations from time to time. Try to think of an illusory correlation that is held by you, a family member, or a close friend. How do you think this illusory correlation came about and what can be done in the future to combat them?
2. Are there any questions about human or animal behaviour that you would really like to answer? Generate a hypothesis and briefly describe how you would conduct an experiment to answer your question.
3. explain to me what a neuron is, the components of a neuron, and how it works. Make sure you have the all-or-nothing-law and action potential in your answer. Remember this is a writing assignment and writing assignments are expected to be at least a half page single spaced or full page double spaced in length.
Prior to completing the summative assignment, consider the various topics studied by social psychologists:
Social thinking (attitudes, the self, judgment and decision making, etc.),
Social relations (attraction, aggression, prosocial behavior, etc.)
Social influence (conformity and obedience, persuasion, group processes, etc.)
Consider also your own interests and career aspirations and identify a problem of interest or relevance to you and amenable to a social psychological solution. (For example, those interested in healthcare might consider programs that aspire to get kids moving or help adults stop smoking, enhance caregiving practices amongst the elderly, or encourage safe or healthy habits.). For ideas—and/or to increase awareness of the broad range of applicability of social psychological insight—browse the solutions catalog available via Stanford SPARQ at ; you may also contact your instructor for specific suggestions. Next, evaluate contributing social factors in light of theoretical principles and design an ethical, feasible intervention program. (Refer to “Writing a Review Article for Psychological Bulletin” (Bem, 2016) for advice regarding academic writing of this nature. In addition, review the guide for , available through the Ashford Writing Center, including information on .).
Your final paper should encompass the following:
Assess social behavior, including factors that influence social behavior as well as the role behavior plays in producing and perpetuating social issues and problems.
Describe a resulting social problem in the context of social psychological theory and research.
Interpret relevant theoretical perspectives derived from social psychology.
Distinguish scientific methods for studying this specific social problem.
Develop an original intervention strategy based on social psychological theory, research, and your evaluation of this specific social problem.
Suggest, propose, or assess career paths to which this insight may be applicable.
