Students will be introduced to the main theories, research methods and major research findings in social psychology. Emphasis will also be placed on key concepts such as attribution, cognition, attitudes, social influence. At the end of this course, students should be able to demonstrate an understanding of the basic principles of social influences on behaviour.
