Social Psychology
Lecture 1  Social Psychology
Social psychology  the scientifici study of how people think about, relate to, and influence one
another, either interpersonally or within groups.

Levels of analysis:

 Intrapersonal processes  emotions, cognition: stereotypes
 Interpersonal processes  how predict relations between people?
 Intra-group processes  group more than two people
 Inter-group processes  between groups

Axiom 1 human cognition, emotion, and behavior is a combination of the situation and personal
traits.

The role of the person

 Personality psychology
 Social neuroscience
 Evolutionary psychology

The role of the situation

 Marketing  persuasion via implicit or explicit processes
 Group psychology  conformity
 Cultural psychology

Axiom 2  people construct their own social reality. Human cognition, emotion, and behavior is
strongly influenced by the situation, or rather, by peoples interpretation of the situation.

Thomas theorem  a child’s perception about the existence of ghosts will keep him awake at night,
though they don’t actually exist

 if people define situations as real, they are real in their consequences



Consequences:

 Self-serving interpretations
 Motivated reasoning  people selectively interpret evidence that supports their worldview
(and ignore evidence that does not support it)  subjective beliefs as objective truths.
 Ideological conflict  it is very difficult to compromise when different parties experience
their moral worldview as an objective truth



Axiom 3  people are social animals  other influence most of what people think, feel and do.

Why?:

 The need to belong
 Evolutionary adaptive  early ancestors lived as hunter-gatherers in difficult situations.
Cooperation and group life essential for survival.

,Social Psychology
The social brain hypothesis  Dunbar: our complex human brain evolved as a result of our complex
social life.



The herding instinct  it is in our nature to desire meaningful relationships with others



Lecture 2 / chapter 11  small group processes
Sociale facilitatie  de neiging van mensen om eenvoudige of goed aangeleerde taken beter uit te
voeren wanneer anderen aanwezig zijn.

Sociale faciliteringseffect  sociale opwinding uit de aanwezigheid van anderen versterkt de
dominante (de gemakkelijke of goed aangeleerde taken) respons, maar in moeilijke, in ingestudeerde
taken wordt de prestatie belemmerd.

Evaluatievrees  ontstaat wanneer we ons zorgen maken over hoe anderen ons evalueren

Social loafing  de neiging van mensen om zich minder in te spannen wanneer ze een
gemeenschappelijk doel moeten bereiken dan wanneer ze individueel verantwoordelijk zijn voor het
bereiken van een het doel.

Groepspolarisatie  discussies in groepen zorgt ervoor dat de algemene mening van de individuele
groepsleden extremer worden.

Confirmation bias  je zoekt naar informatie wat jouw eigen mening valideert.



Politieke extremen:

1. De extreme meningen in een groep worden ervaren met hoog zelfvertrouwen (overtuiging
superioriteit)
2. Deze meningen zijn eigen simpeler

 meer zelf overtuiging en zelfvertrouwen maakt iemand niet meer competent



Dunning-kruger effect  vooral incompetente mensen hebben teveel zelfvetrouwen

 “people who are unskilled in these domains suffer a dual burden; not only do these people reach
erroneous conclusions and make unfortunate choices, but their incompetence robs them of the
metacognitive ability to realize it.”

 echte experts zien de complexiteit



 groepen zijn meer egoïstisch dan individuen



Knowledge clip 1  exclusion
Buitengesloten worden bedreigd bepaalde behoeften:

, Social Psychology
 Erbij horen (belonging)
 Controle
 Zelfvertrouwen
 Betekenisvol bestaan



Knowledge clip 2  groepsdenken
De invloed van groepen op beslissingen:

 Groepspolarisatie  ook bij beslissingen
 “risky shift” fenomeen  groepen maken vaak riskantere beslissingen dan individuen. Soms
ook: “cautious shift”
 Groepsdenken

De oorzaken van groepsdenken:

 Hoge groepscohesie
 Groepsisolatie
 Een richtgevende leider met een duidelijke visie



Symptomen van groepsdenken:

 Overschatting van de groeps capaciteiten en moraliteit
 “closed mindedness”  rationalisering in plaats van reflecteren op de beslissingen. 
stereotyperende meningen over de vijanden
 Uniformiteitsdrukken  conformiteit, zelfcensuur, illusie van eensgezindheid, mindguards



Hoe voorkom je groepsdenken:

 Kritiek
 Meningsverschillen
 Afwijkende mening van een groepslid
 Kritiek van buitenaf
 Kritische blikken van externe en onafhankelijke mensen


Lecture 3 / Chapter 3  the self
Self-image or self-concept  your answers when you ask yourself: Who am I?

These aspects of your self-concept activate various self-schemes  how do you think about yourself
in various domains?



Various selves 1

 Individual self  what makes me unique?
 Relational self  which people belong to me?
 Collective self  of which groups am I a member?
