Why do people do things that they know are wrong? Why do we like some people and dislike others? Why do we believe some things and disbelieve others? How do we make sense of our unbelievably complex world? Some of the most pressing issues of our times revolve around these questions, and social psychology is the one discipline that addresses them scientifically. This course provides a broad overview of the field of social psychology, emphasizing major themes, historical trends, and current directions. This is a course designed for graduate students. The content leans toward students pursuing a career in social psychology, although the course is open to students from outside of the discipline as well. The primary method of instruction is reading, writing about, and discussing classic and contemporary articles in social psychology. Each class session will consist of a lecture that explores that day’s topic, offering context and background. Discussion will be woven through each lecture. Through reading, writing about, and discussing original work, the goal is to finish the course with a deeper understanding of the broad themes and issues that inform social psychology.
