Social Psychology by Lisa A Harrison
Social Psychology: Learning through Case Studies introduces readers to key concepts within the field through a collection of engaging real-life scenarios. It covers a broad range of topics, including the concept of self, cognitive dissonance, social influence, group processes, prosocial behaviour, aggression, prejudice, and more. Each chapter introduces a specific topic within the realm of social psychology, followed by relevant case studies and questions designed to encourage critical thinking and practical application. Discussion questions following each individual case and key takeaways at the end of each chapter encourage student engagement and retention of the material. Social Psychology is an exceptional resource for courses and programs in social psychology, as well as interdisciplinary studies, especially those that emphasize human behaviour, social interactions, and real-world applications of psychological theories.
