Transcript: The Connections of Social Psychology By: ShyAnne Lozen Social Influences Social Influences Social learning theory: The capacity to learn from observing others. As a society, one of the ways we learn many things (like learning how to dance the Tango) from watching others model that behavior. Chameleon Effect Example: Crossing your arms if the person you are talking to is doing the same. How does this govern behavior? The Chameleon Effect can have the ability to mimic actions or change attitudes towards a certain group/person. Chameleon Effect The tendency to mimic (unconsciously) the nonverbal mannerisms of someone you are interacting with. Is This Social Psychological Theory Correct or Incorrect? Examples of social learning can be seen everyday. Is this social psychological theory correct or incorrect? Shifted attitudes toward a certain group/person. My opinion: Yes! Mimicry of actions during conversations are observational. The Self and Self-Esteem The Self and Self-Esteem Our awareness of vulnerability and mortality takes part in our self-esteem. Self-esteem can be deemed fragile to society. How we are accepted by other people is a basic function of self-esteem. Ostracism What is Ostracism? An extreme form of rejection that may result in the destruction of one's self esteem. Ostracism What is the Purpose of the Anterior Cingulate Cortex? Detects when a given situation doesn't meet ones goals. This region of the brain also activates during physcial pain. Do you think this is a coincidence? How does this govern behavior? Lowered self-esteem and activation of the anterior cingulate cortex. The Influence of Treatment by Others Example If you are playing catch with two people and the other two people stop throwing the ball to you. How would you feel? Is This Social Psycholoigcal Theory Correct? Neglect Is this Theory Correct? Exclusion General Ignoring My opinion: Yes! Undermining Cognition, Memory, and Attributes Cognition, Memory, and Attributions Our memory can be altered in psychology. Eyewitness Testimony Eyewitness Testimony Eyewitness Testimony and confessions are the most influential forms of evidence in trials. Eyewitness Testimony is not Always Accurate Diving Into the Truth Eyewitnesses can provide legal testimony, but their memories are vulnerable to a variety of errors and biases. People in society can make errors in remembering specific details about an event and can even recall entire events that never even happened. False eyewitness testimonys can lead to wrongful convictions. Misinformation Effect Misinformation Effect The process by which cues that are given after an event can cause falsified information into memory. How does this govern behavior? The misinformation effect can alter our memory, leading to wrongful and unconscious consequences. Misinformation Effect Example Example The recollection of the event may be altered when asking how fast the cars hit each other. "Hit" versus "Smash" Is This Theory Correct? Eyewitness Testimony Mistaken identifications are a leading factor of wrongful convictions. Derrick Harris Why is this Social Psychological Theory Correct? Nathan Brown Marvin Anderson The Connection Ostracism The Misinformation Effect How are these Connected? The Chameleon Effect We all have seen and experiences these effects and theories, some of them we experience daily. All of these cohabit and interfere with eachother because of others in society! How Do I Conclude? Society forms itself. From the effects and theories I have chosen, I believe they are all accurate and all intertwine in one way or another to the formation of social psychology. Examples of each of these can be seen in real life scenarios.

Transcript: "What is the most effective form of media in communicating information?" #ConcernedStudent1950 #PrayForParis 1. Agree to a consent outlining the general idea of the experiment and prompting the participant to say “yes” or “no.” 2. The participant is presented with one of the three levels of our independent variable, Facebook post, Online news article, Textual paragraph 3. The participant is asked to read the information on the screen 4. Then the participant will click an arrow to move to three different sections of questions a. The amount of time that the participant spent reading the material is measured from the time they get onto the page with the medium of information, to the time that they click the arrow to move to the next section. Results Participants & Materials In 21st century society... The average time spend with major media per day is about 12 hours (Statistica 2015) About 6 hours a day is spent online, 1.72 of those hours being on social media (Statistica 2015) 58% increase in social media use among adults in the past 10 years Facebook is the top search tool for conveinence of information (Campbell & Craig 2014) 20% of the world is active on Facebook (Statistica 2015) Austin Fischer & Jaclyn Tortora Thursday, December 10, 2015 Methods: Procedure Continued Discussion 5. The participant will then be asked 4 multiple choice questions about the material that they read to measure how much information from the source that the participant absorbed. 6. Then, the participants will see a Likert scale that will measure how likely the participant is to engage in in certain behaviors after reading the information. 7. The participant will answer demographics highlighted in previous slide Literature on Topic Dr. Steven Young Conducted separate one way ANOVAs for each of our dependent measures Likelihood to Elicit a Response versus the Medium of Media: F(2,26) = .850, p = .440 Level of Interest versus the Medium of the Media F(2,26)= .207, p = .814 Level of Absorption versus the Medium of Media F(2,24)= .990, p = .388 Results show that none of the p-values are less than .05 and so the differences between each group are nonsignificant. Methods Facebook messages directly influence political self-expression, information seeking and voting behavior of users and their friends (Bond 2012) Those who actively consume news by personalizing and re-contextualizing on social networking sites, were found to be politically more engaged citizens (Choi 2015) Facebook is fundamental and crucial for delivering information above other media sources The ALS Ice Bucket Challenge was able to raise 35 times more funding than traditional methods IVs: 3 levels Facebook Post Textual Paragraph Online News Article DVs: 3 levels Interest Level Likelihood to elicit a response Absorption 34 Responses Adjusted population to 27 Convenience sampling method Participants were gathered from Facebook Other Research Methods classes No compensation Demographic Info 14 M, 12 F, and 1 Other participant 16 white, 2 African American, 3 Hispanic/Latino, 7 Asian and 3 Other Average age - 21.04 23 CUNY/SUNY Students, 4 not More Background Background We hypothesize that the most effective medium for receiving information, out of the three possible forms studied (plain text, online news article, Facebook post), will be the Facebook post. Inspiration for Research Research Question Literature on Topic Methods: Procedure Results Continued Conducted t-tests to see if there were to be a difference, how much that difference would be Likelihood to Elicit a Response News Article (M = 2.25, SD = .61) versus the Textual Paragraph (M = 2.56, SD = .67) t(20)= 1.130, p =.272 Facebook Post (M = 2.68, SD = .92) versus the Textual Paragraph t(14)= .286, p =.779 News Article versus the Facebook Post t(14)= 1.108, p = .287 Level of Interest News Article (M= 37.13, SD= 19.95) versus the Facebook post (M = 37.03, SD = 19.23) t(14)= .010, p= .992 Facebook post versus the Textual Paragraph (M = 32.68, SD = 13.84) t(14)= .518, p = .612 News Article versus the Textual Paragraph t(20)= .608, p = .550 Level of Absorption News Article (M= 2.80, SD= .79) versus the Textual Paragraph (M= 2.20, SD= 1.20) t(18)= 1.299, p = .210 Facebook post (M= 2.80, SD= 1.10) versus the News Article t(13)= .000, p = 1.000. Facebook post versus the Textual Paragraph t(13)= .921, p = .374 Media Source on Communication Effectiveness Our results were nonsignificant across the board The hypothesis was not supported Facebook posts are no more effective at distributing information than news or text Our research cannot be applied to existing literature, likert design flaws and focus on chipotle Room for improvement Change the gauge of participant interest Alter the Likert scale, pilot test

Transcript: The experiment: Observing more subjects for a longer period of time has the potential to yield more accurate results in future research. By: Daniel Aboagye http://www.stat.purdue.edu/~mhonerla/stat301/Chapter_7.pdf Controls On average, people walked 7.9 seconds faster when alone When humans are in exposed situations... Time of day Strength in Numbers Independent weather t= 38.2 - 46.1 = -5.23 1.51 df= (10-1)+(10-1) = 18 The data shows that humans traveling in groups walk more slowly than individuals traveling alone. age of subjects Conclusion Do they walk faster in groups? variance of source population = 83.6 + 120.9 (10-1)+(10-1) = 11.36 The Question: Variables Number of people in the group Results When humans are traveling in groups they walk more slowly, as there is less risk of attack from predators--conversely, when alone, they walk faster to avoid attack. Compare Only adults were sampled. Children and the elderly were left out of the pool.

Transcript: I asked them to write down why they believed so... Who responded? Using Surveymonkey.com I then created my survey. Later I presented my survey to my peers and I received 56 responses. 10.7%- believed that they were going to marry their first love. 51.8% knew they were not. 10.7 still believe that they will marry their love. 26.8% said they never had their first love Background Information Reality 12 and under= 49.1% 14 and under= 27.3% 15 and under= 10.9% 16 and under= 1.8% 17 and under= 1.8% 18 and under= 1.8% Other= 7.3% "Is 12 Too Young to Start Dating?" CBSNews. CBS Interactive, 07 July 2010. Web. 12 Sept. 2012. <http://www.cbsnews.com/2100-500165_162-6520486.html>. Method- How I did it Now what about the person they are dating now? I believe more people will state that they started in a relationship due to peer pressure. How many regret dating that certain person? Mari Rivera's Experiment Why does this interest me? My responses- Age groups 17.9%=Yes 12.5%= No 12.5%= Possibly 46.4%= They are not dating!!!!!!! 10.7%= Believe they are forever alone. Throughout the project I began to question... I first had to create a hypothesis Method- How I did it? Reality This was one of my best responses... As a child you can often feel lonely and the need to have someone with you. As others do, this is simply just hormones and youth experiences. We feel the need to have what we don't really need, and that is the feeling of "love". Some kids at home struggle to gain attention from parents and fill in the void by simply finding a new someone who will give them attention. Other times they simply think they are in "love" with the person, they are way off. Then there is peer pressure, where you see someone who has a person with them and most kids might have a person with them, so they too feel the need the need to have a person with them. There to tell them they are "pretty" or to simply just be of comfort. People will agree that others feel the need to start dating at a young age... WORK CITED WORK CITED The little girl starts telling me how she and her boyfriend are already making out and are wanting to do more sexual stuff. At first I thought she was only kidding but no she was not...AT ALL! So this is where my journey begins... Do young people feel the need to be in a relationship? Why do they? Why does this interest me? If people are in relationships did they actually believe that they were going to marry their patner? I believe people are psychologically pressured to start dating. This is caused due to media, hormones, and peer pressure. 37.5% said that they first started a relationship due to the belief that they actually had chemistry... 35.7% wanted one to feel important and loved by someone... 12.5% believed they wanted a realationship due to hormones... 5.4% wanted a relationship just so they can put it on Facebook. My Hypothesis My Predictions My Response My Prediction Only 8.9% have stated to be in a relationship due to peer pressure... I then began to ask myself... Sadly I couldn't find the answer http://www.nytimes.com/2012/06/04/us/middle-school-students-focus-of-anti-violence-effort.html?pagewanted=all For my summer job I worked for the Candy Cane Day Care on Rucker Boulevard. The age group I watched were the 3-4 year olds. One day a little girl came up to me talking about her supposed relationship with a little boy. Me just believing it She only meant holding hands kept the little conversation going. This is where the creepiness begins.... Method- How did I do this? People feel the need to be in a relationship at a young age. 55.4% - females 44.6% - males Now why do we believe that everyone is dating? I was correct! 73.2% agree that people feel the need to start dating! 26.8% did not agree. 66.1%=15-16 14.3% = 17-18 7.1% = 13-14 and 21-30 3.6%= 41-100 1.8% = 19-20 Response A study, commissioned by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation and released this spring, showed that three-quarters of students had already had a boyfriend or girlfriend. One in three said they had been victims of psychological dating violence; nearly one in six said they had experienced physical dating violence. Almost half said they had been touched in an unwanted sexual way or had been the target of sexual slurs How young is to young? VIDEO TIME :D 18.2% = yes 12.7%= no 69.1= not really I then had to decide which questions I should write. http://www.cbsnews.com/2100-500165_162-6520486.html Reality
