Hi class!

I will talk about my presentation of an “introduction to social psychology”.

This is a discipline that study psychological phenomenons, those are defined by social and cultural processes and is not a subdivision of psychology of sociology, is a new discipline.

This topic is important for me because the notion of subject is associated with the interrelation between individual and groups. This one is one way how you would study treatments for understand human behaviours.

A group can be defined as two or more individuals that are connected to each another by social relationships, groups tend to interact other, influence and share a common identity and have three characteristics which are norms, roles and relations. Norms are implicit rules and expectations for group members, for example, saying hi, good bye or shaking hands; roles are expectations for specific member of the group, for example, the oldest brother has additional responsibilities in his family; relations and patterns of liking in the group give differences in the prestige or status, for example, popular people and leaders.

Some interesting theory about this discipline is the triadic model of Serge Moscovici, this one suggest that we act associating three aspects: self or individual subject, alter or social subject and the object. So this point is relevant for deal with the reality in a social context, interactions history with people who have influence in my life.

In conclusion i need to add that this discipline is very extensive and for this reason and is impossible to explain in this little presentation, but some of the principal concepts are here and i think could be the opening to an interesting career discussion about the construction of the subject, his identity, his history in community besides the other psychological practices.

I hope you enjoy it!
