课程概述

Ever wonder why people do what they do? This course—which includes more than $1,000 of video and reading materials—offers some answers based on the latest research from social psychology. Students taking the course for a Certificate will also receive free membership in Social Psychology Network (SocialPsychology.org). COURSE DESCRIPTION FROM PROFESSOR PLOUS: Each of us is dealt a different hand in life, but we all face similar questions when it comes to human behavior: What leads us to like one person and dislike another? How do conflicts and prejudices develop, and how can they be reduced? Can psychological research help protect the environment, and if so, how? This course offers a brief introduction to classic and contemporary social psychology, covering topics such as decision making, persuasion, group behavior, personal attraction, and factors that promote health and well-being. Our focus will be on surprising, entertaining, and intriguing research findings that are easy to apply in daily life. The course will also draw from the websites of Social Psychology Network, the world's largest online community devoted to social psychology. I hope you'll join me for this course, have fun, and learn some useful information that enriches your life....

Excellent content and even better delivery. If you want to understand human behaviour (and much more) and broaden your horizons, this is a must-enrol course. Insightful, thought-provoking, surprising and very enjoyable course.

Buen curso, me hubiera gustado que los textos tuvieran un tipo de letra y se pudieran copiar para llevarlos a un traductor, esto ayudaría a la gente que no domina el ingles, aunque entiendo porque el motivo de esa prohibición.

One of the most interesting courses for any individual to take on. I learned plenty of useful cognitive errors that the individual may go through during a single day. Definitely worth reading for self growth and benefit.

Amazing course, learn a lot of stuff that was against my perception of the reality of social interaction. Loved de curiosities, didn't love that much group assignments but I ended up understanding why they were so used.

amazing instructor, awsome video tutorials with cases. Somewhere assignments are time taking & complex in nature. The exam, the quiz is quite interesting to attend. Overall, a nice course to start with as a beginner.

Learned that to question myself and my value and accept change . Learned to keep my interaction positive with others and ask what happen to them ? and how can I help them ? use myself as a powerful agent of change .
