Social Psychology


Journal (Assignment 1)

For our first assignment, we were required to produce two journals of our past experiences. This is by relating the concepts of chapter 1 to 5 in social psychology. The aim of this assignment is to ensure that we understand the concepts we were taught to the extent that we could convey it in our daily life.

            There are several intended learning outcome that I have gained from this assignment. For instance, I could comprehend more clearly of my reaction and understand the behaviour of society. In order to achieve these outcomes, one has to deeply fathom the theories and concepts that were taught in social psychology by constantly applying our actions to the concepts and theories learnt.

            All in all, this assignment helped me understand more severely about the human nature. However, I also started to recognize my weakness in where I have always been misintrepreting others and myself.

Article Analysis (Assignment 2)

            We had to work in a group for assignment 2. Each member had to find articles and advertisements of the application of concepts that was learnt in social psychology from chapter 6 to 9. The aim of it is so that we were able to apply social psychology principles to real-world events.

            The learning outcome of this assignment is that I was able to analyse the behaviour and reaction of the society towards specific circumstances. Moreover, I could comprehend how it relates to the concepts, principles and theories that I have learnt in social psychology. One has to have an open mind and a good understanding to achieve these outcomes.

            Basically, I have notice that I was not always aware of the behaviour of people around me before this. On the positive side, I have notice that I was frequently portraying a constructive behaviour towards society despite that fact.
