Although the specific topics investigated by social psychologists range widely (from riot participation to decision processes in small groups, for example), the focus on external social influences on individual attitudes and social interaction remains the constant perspective which unifies the field. In this course, we shall apply that perspective to a range of topics generally concerned with how we influence others and are, in turn, influenced by them. Texts: Michener, H. Andrew, John D. DeLamater, and Daniel J. Myers. Social Psychology, 5th Edition, Harcourt, Brace, 2004. Selected readings available on electronic reserve at the Henry Madden Library. The password to get access to the readings is: tinker Course procedures: This course is based on a discussion of the principles of social psychology and their applications to our daily circumstances. Our discussion each day will be grounded on the reading assigned for that day, therefore you are expected to keep up with the reading so that you can contribute to the discussion. How to get a grade: There will be from seven to ten writing exercises. Some of these will be unannounced brief essays which you will write in class in which you will describe or explain a concept, proposition or procedure that we have read about or discussed during the week when the essay is written. Others will be exercises which you will write out of class. Each out-of-class exercise must be turned in, typed, at (or before) the beginning of the class period on the day it is due. If you are absent when one of these is assigned or, in the case of the out-of-class work, if you fail to turn it in on time, it may not be made up, but your lowest two essay scores will automatically be dropped. The remaining essays, together, will be worth 30% of your course grade. You will be expected to write brief summaries of five of the articles which are on reserve. The assignments are in the reading schedule. In order to receive credit, your summary must be turned in, typed, at (or before) the beginning of the class period on the day it is due. Because you might be unexpectedly and unavoidable absent on one of these days, the lowest grade among these five assignments will be automatically dropped. The remaining summaries will be worth 20% of your course grade. Each of your summaries must be typed and should be limited to two standard sheets of paper. Each summary should follow this pattern: State the authors thesis. This can generally be done by completing this sentence: The author is trying to prove that Briefly summarize the argument. This should contain a list of claims (the author(s) believes the thesis to be true because ). Briefly indicate the evidence that the author(s) has for each claim. State how convincing or unconvincing you found the paper (and why). There will be a midterm examination and a final examination. They will be essay exams and each one will be worth 25% of your grade. The planned day for the midterm is noted on the reading schedule. It might be rescheduled, depending on how quickly we progress through the material. Any change will be announced in class at least one week prior to the exam. If you miss the examination for any reason, the make-up day will be the last scheduled day of class before the final exam. The final exam will be given at the day and time scheduled by the university for this class. Grading Scale: A: 90-100 B: 80-89 C: 70-79 D: 60-69 F: 0-59 This syllabus and schedule are subject to change in the event of extenuating circumstances. If you are absent from class, it is your responsibility to check on announcements made while you were absent. If you have a disability, it is your responsibility to identify yourself to the university so that reasonable accommodations can be made.
