This course focuses on how social factors influence individuals' beliefs, perceptions, and behaviors. We will examine how attitudes develop and change; how people perceive others and their environment, and what brings people together. In addition, we will dissect group processes involving conformity, conflict, power, status, and influence and examine how inequality persists through social interaction.
