Within the realm of psychology, social psychology is concerned with how the behaviour and thoughts of an individual are influenced by the social context, ie other people around them. This course explores a number of differing contexts (small groups, crowds, authority figures) and examines the evidence that seeks to explain how this context shapes what we do and how we think.
