This course will provide students with a broad general understanding of many of the common topics in social psychology, such as relationships between social behavior and good attitudes, self-concept, mass communication, and group process. In addition, culture and ethnicity issues will be integrated into each topical area. Specific comparisons of the social experience of racial and ethnic groups in the United States of America will provide the foundation for lectures and discussions.
