Behavior and the Social Psychologies of Social Institution -
Here we will consider the most "macro" dimensions of social
psychology, those social forces arising out of the interactions
of large numbers of individuals and groups which, in turn, are the
master templates patterning the cultural and social orders. One
cannot study the behaviors of individuals without devoting some
attention to the broader socio-cultural environments, their economic
structures, stratification orders, technological systems of communication
and transportation, family processes, demographics, and value systems,
structuring their social lives. 4/5 |

Psychology Research - The social sciences are dedicated to understanding
the human condition, ideally to the extent that the singular and collective
behaviors of human beings can be understood and even predicted. Though
their goals are identical in the abstract, these "sciences"
differ in terms of their way of looking at things, the questions they
ask, the methods they use in addressing these questions, and what
they do with this information once they obtain it. 4/5 |
