Ross and McDougall: Two Early Versions of Social Psychology
The year was 1908, a sociologist, Edward Ross and the other a psychologist, William McDougall, published their separate introductory textbooks in social psychology.
Both were concerned with understanding the relationships between person and society and therefore their field was called social psychology; however, each offered a different analysis.

Ross and McDougall: Two Early Versions of Social Psychology
Ross emphasized the important role that social and situational factors played in shapping the person;
McDougall stressed the role that person factors played in shaping social interaction and society.
According Ross: Human Behavior = f (situational factors)
According Behavior: Human Behavior = f (person factors)

Characteristics of social psychology1. The level of analysis is the individual
in the social context (i.e., how an individual influences and is influenced by other individuals)
2. Social psychology studies individuals’ overt behaviors as well as their internal psychological states such emotions, motivations, and beliefs
3. Social psychologists use the scientific method to answer questions

Scientific Description and Explanation
Social Psychology, like any science, involves: Description –
careful and reliable observation Explanation –
development of theories that connect and organize observations
![Page 7: Person, situation, interaction an introduction to the social psychological perspective](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062501/5681610a550346895dd056cf/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Scientific Description and Explanation
Theories are scientific explanations that: Connect and organize existing observations Suggest fruitful paths for future research.

Sociocultural Sociocultural perspective –
a theoretical viewpoint that searches for the causes of social behavior in influences from larger social groups E.g., norms within cultural groups, social
class differences, nationality/ethnicity, fads
![Page 10: Person, situation, interaction an introduction to the social psychological perspective](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062501/5681610a550346895dd056cf/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Evolutionary Evolutionary perspective –
a theoretical viewpoint that searches for the causes of social behavior in the physical and psychological predispositions that helped our ancestors survive and reproduce
![Page 11: Person, situation, interaction an introduction to the social psychological perspective](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062501/5681610a550346895dd056cf/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
Evolutionary What drives social behavior?
Genetic predispositions inherited from our ancestors that promoted their survival and reproduction, such as: The tendency to automatically recognize an
angry face The tendency for mothers to feel protective of
their children

Social Learning Social learning perspective –
a theoretical viewpoint that focuses on past learning experiences as determinants of a person’s social behaviors
![Page 13: Person, situation, interaction an introduction to the social psychological perspective](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062501/5681610a550346895dd056cf/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Social Learning What drives social behavior?
Classically conditioned preferences For example, the feeling of fear at sight of
person who hit you. Habits rewarded by other people
For example, a boy who fights frequently after his father praised him for winning fight with neighborhood bully.
![Page 14: Person, situation, interaction an introduction to the social psychological perspective](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062501/5681610a550346895dd056cf/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
Social Learning What drives social behavior?
Imitating the rewarded behavior of others For example, buying a gun after seeing a movie
in which the hero wins true love after shooting half the people in his girlfriend’s neighborhood.

Social Cognitive Social cognitive perspective –
a theoretical viewpoint that focuses on the mental processes involved in paying attention to, interpreting, and remembering social experiences E.g., self-enhancing biases
![Page 16: Person, situation, interaction an introduction to the social psychological perspective](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062501/5681610a550346895dd056cf/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
The study of social behavior Descriptive methods involve attempts to
measure or record behaviors, thoughts or feelings in their natural state.
Experimental methods involve attempts to manipulate social processes by varying some aspect of the situation.
![Page 17: Person, situation, interaction an introduction to the social psychological perspective](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062501/5681610a550346895dd056cf/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Descriptive MethodsSocial psychologists use five major types of
descriptive methods: Naturalistic Observation Case Studies Archives Surveys Psychological Tests
![Page 18: Person, situation, interaction an introduction to the social psychological perspective](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062501/5681610a550346895dd056cf/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
Experiments An experiment is a research method in
which the researcher sets out to systematically manipulate one source of influence while holding others constant.
![Page 19: Person, situation, interaction an introduction to the social psychological perspective](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062501/5681610a550346895dd056cf/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
Experiments Independent variable –
the variable manipulated by the experimenter
Dependent variable –the variable measured by the experimenter

Experiments Social psychologists use two major types
of experimental methods: Laboratory experiments Field experiments
![Page 21: Person, situation, interaction an introduction to the social psychological perspective](https://reader036.vdocument.in/reader036/viewer/2022062501/5681610a550346895dd056cf/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Experiments Advantages:
Allows cause-effect conclusions Allows control of extraneous variables
Disadvantages: Artificial situations may not represent
relevant events as they naturally unfold (subjects’ responses may not be natural, since they know they are being observed).
