PSY 362 Foundations of
Social Psychology GCU New
PSY 362 All Weeks Discussions GCU New
PSY 362 Topic 1 DQ 1
Explain two major differences between common
sense understandings and social psychological theories. Illustrate with an
example. What is the danger in relying on common sense or intuition in learning
about the relationship between the individual and his or her environment?
PSY 362 Topic 1 DQ 2
Look over the table of contents in your
textbook. Which topic is the most interesting to you personally? Why? Which
topic looks like it may connect most to your spiritual, emotional, and
professional development?
PSY 362 Topic 2 DQ 1
From your perspective, how does the material
in your textbook on the topics of self-presentation and social perception
relate to the passage from Matthew 7:3-5, in which Jesus asks: “Why do you look
at the speck of sawdust in your brothers’ eye and pay no attention to the plank
in your own eye? How can you say to your brother, ‘Let me take the speck out of
your eyes when all the time there is a plank in your own eye? You hypocrite,
first take the plank out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to
remove the speck from your brother’s eye.”
PSY 362 Topic 2 DQ 2
Describe three important functions of the
self. Give examples of each.
PSY 362 Topic 3 DQ 1
Consider something you feel strongly about,
perhaps something you love or hate, or a particularly strong attitude for or
against something. Describe this attitude along the three elements of affect,
cognition, and behavior.
PSY 362 Topic 3 DQ 2
Assume that an individual engages in
behaviors that are in conflict with their stated religious beliefs, and they
experience dissonance. What impact might this have on their beliefs? What might
allow people to productively resolve that dissonance?
PSY 362 Topic 4 DQ 1
What are two reasons that appear to explain
why people so often mimic one another? How might each of these processes
function differently in different cultures? Provide examples.
PSY 362 Topic 4 DQ 2
How are both the power of the situation and
the power of the person evident in the results of Asch’s conformity research?
Explain.
PSY 362 Topic 5 DQ 1
What are Robert J. Sternberg’s (in “Construct
Validation of a Triangular Love Scale”) three components of intimate
relationships? Is it necessary for all three to be present in an intimate
relationship? How do relationships that vary on these components differ from
each other?
PSY 362 Topic 5 DQ 2
Using social exchange or equity theory, what
are the elements that affect our willingness to stay in a relationship? Explain
how these elements affect our choices.
PSY 362 Topic 6 DQ 1
Research on
the relation between religion and prejudice is well summarized by Gordon
Allport: “The role of religion is paradoxical. It makes prejudice and it
unmakes prejudice.” In your opinion, do you agree, and, if so, why might this
be true? If you do not agree, explain your reasoning.
PSY 362 Topic 6 DQ 2
Prejudice has traditionally been assumed to
be the product of some form of malice, brought about by social or emotional
forces. In recent years; however, there has been increasing research on how prejudice
can result from cognitive processes, without malicious intent. Discuss how and
why cognitive processes can produce prejudice. Once stereotypes and prejudices
are formed, how do they come to be self-perpetuating?
PSY 362 Topic 7 DQ 1
What is groupthink? How does it affect the
decisions made by a group? Identify the critical factors believed to lead to
groupthink. Explain how you could reduce groupthink in terms of these factors.
PSY 362 Topic 7 DQ 2
To what groups do you belong? Describe a
situation when you experienced deindividuation, social loafing, or social
facilitation while performing a task?
PSY 362 Topic 8 DQ 1
According to evolutionary theory, behaviors
that optimize survival and reproduction are favored by natural selection and
therefore more likely to persist. How, then, can we explain the evolution of
altruism, which is by definition costly to the self? Provide an example.
PSY 362 Topic 8 DQ 2
Based on what you’ve learned about bystander
intervention and diffusion of responsibility, what actions could you take to
increase the likelihood that someone would help you in an emergency that
happens in front of a large crowd? What obstacles to helping could persist?

PSY 362 Topic 2 CLC Ethics and IRB GCU
Details:
This is a Collaborative Learning Community (CLC) assignment. You will be assigned group in class.We have navigated through much research to date. As you know, ethical considerations are vital during this process. After reading about Milgram’s compliance experiment and many of the early studies in social psychology, it becomes clear that participants in social psychology have suffered harm. There are safeguards in place today within the American Psychological Association’s Code of Ethics (2016) with regard to research. Institutional Review Boards have also been put in place to protect both human and animal research participants.

There are safeguards in place today within the American Psychological Association’s Code of Ethics (2016) with regard to research. Institutional Review Boards have also been put in place to protect both human and animal research participants.
Imagine your CLC group sits on an
Institutional Review Board (IRB) and someone like Phillip Zombardo or Stanley
Milgram provides you with a research proposal to conduct the same
experiment(s).
Task: Do some research and chose an unethical
study that has been conducted thus far (i.e., Monster Study, Aversion Project,
Dr. Money/David Reimer, Learned Helplessness).A quick internet search will
reveal other ideas.
Your job is to approve the study, approve with
modifications, or reject the study completely. Using the APA Code of Ethics,
justify your group’s determination. The code of ethics can be found at http://www.apa.org/ethics/code/index.aspx
Create a PowerPoint presentation, of 8-12
slides (slide count does not include the title and reference slide), in which
your group presents their decision. Your PowerPoint should include:
- Provide a summary of the experiment.
- Identify some general ethical concerns with the experiment.
- Using the APA Code of Ethics, identify at least five specific ethic
codes that were violated with this study. Be sure to explain why there was
a code violation.
- Provide your decision as an IRB if you will approve
the study, approve it with modifications, or flat out reject it all
together.
Use two to three scholarly resources for
support. Your textbook is a viable source. Resources should be listed on the
last slide.
Include speaker notes below each
content-related slide that represent what would be said if giving the
presentation in person. Expand upon the information included in the slide and
do not simply restate it. Please ensure the speaker notes include 50-75 words
per slide.
NOTE: Save
and upload your PowerPoint as a PDF if it’s too large
