what are the themes of psychology
Answers
Social psychology is the scientific study of how society affects the way individuals behave, think, and feel. For example, social psychologists might examine how people form attitudes or how they work in groups.
Because people and society are so complex, the topics in social psychology seem endless. But most topics in social psychology fall into one of seven major themes. You can think about these themes as a way to categorize the research that's done in social psychology. The major themes are
- Social cognition and perception
- The self in a social context
- Attitudes and persuasion
- Group decisions
- Attraction and close relationships
- Prosocial behavior
- Stereotypes, prejudice, and discrimination
Let's look at each one a little more closely.
Themes of Psychology are:
1. Psychology is empirical
2. Psychology is theoretically driven
3. Sociohistorical Context
4. Multiple causes of behaviour
5. Behaviour is shaped by cultural heritage
6. Heridity, environment influence behaviour.
7. People's Experience is highly subjective.
