Lecture 12 – Social behavior
What are the rules for interpersonal and group behaviors?
Our behaviors, our perceptions and judgment of others, our attitudes and our decisions
are not as independent as we may expect. In many situations, we think and act under the
influence of others. Even when we are alone, we can also be affected by the implied presence
of others.
We will find out, in this lecture, how social forces affect our behaviors and thoughts,
and how pervasive they could be. We will look at six aspects of these social situations in two
categories.
A) Interpersonal Behaviors
1. Person Perception (Judgment)
What factors guide us in perceiving and judging other people? We will consider first
impression, person schema, physical attractiveness, egocentric slant, stereotype, prejudice
and discrimination.
2. Attraction (beyond physical)
How are people attracted to each other? We will consider proximity, similarity, and mutual
liking.
3. Attribution
How do we explain the behaviors of our own and others? There are two dimensions. Also,
our explanations (or attributions) are not always accurate. There are biases.
4. Changing Attitude
What are the components of “attitude”?
By what routes does our attitude change? There are sender, message, and receiver factors.
What are the mechanisms in an attitude change? The mechanisms are learning and cognitive
dissonance.
B). Group behaviors (Group affect on self)
5. Norm and role-Compliance and Conformity
How likely are we to be obedient to an authority? (Milgram’s study)
Why do people in groups often agree with the majority, even when they have exactly the
opposite opinion, or the majority’s ideas are wrong? (Asch’s study)
6. Social facilitation, Effect of a Group on an Individual’s Action
Under what situation would you work harder for examinations? Alone in a classroom, or in
an examination hall with hundreds of students? The answer can be understood in social
facilitation.
Which person, do you think, is more likely to help in an injured stranger nearby? A person
walking alone a quiet street, or a person being in a busy crowd? The answer is called
bystander Effect.
Why do many people become so aggressive during riots, even though they are decent people
also in their normal daily lives? This is the negative effect of group.
7. Altruistic commitment
If the consequence is clear and one’s responsibility is not masked, working together is
positive.
C) Social psychology and Christian faith
1. Attribution error and human evil.
2. Interpersonal factors that affect evangelism.
3. As a local church is a group, we should find some of the group behavior in church.
How should we eliminate such effect or use such effect for the ministry of the church?
