CONTENT SUMMARY 2
Content Summary: Week One
Social psychology is a continuously growing field that is considered fairly new to the
scientific world, in comparison to other psychological fields. Social psychology scientifically
studies individuals in regards to their thoughts, feelings, and behavioral patterns, all within a
social context (Kassin et al., 2017). Social psychology is a highly impacting field that offers
insight into a variety of practical situations, such as cultural variations on behavior, political
concerns, and economical perspectives. Through the use of qualitative and quantitative research,
social psychology aims to uncover various aspects of social phenomena, such as obedience,
aggression, and social influence (Kassin et al., 2017). Each specific phenomena will be
discussed at length in the following paragraphs. (Note: Must be 1 Paragraph (5-7 sentences) / Must
contain the appropriate header / *Doesn’t have to contain sources in this paragraph, but must introduce the
material for the week and give a broad summary of what will be discussed.)
Key Topics
Behavioral Obedience
In society, obedience is a learned action of complying to an order or command due to the
submission of authority (Milgram, 1963). Obedience is a behavioral outcome that is often
exhibited from an individual when the opposing relational component carries an amount of
power in the relationship. The act of obedience can have either beneficial or detrimental effects
on a situation, depending upon the underlying purpose of the commanded action (Milgram,
1963). Beneficial acts of obedience such as when individuals abide to the traffic laws aid to the
positive flow of society. Beneficial obedience can often stem from cooperative interdependence
and the value orientation of maximizing the outcome for both self and other (Rumble, 2011).
CONTENT SUMMARY 3
Detrimental acts of obedience such as the Nazi officer efforts in World War II aid to the
hindrance of society, and typically stem from unilateral dependence and partner control (Kassin
et al., 2017; Rumble 2011). (Note: Must be 1 Paragraph (5-7 sentences) / Must contain the appropriate
header / Must contain a MINIMUM of 2 SOURCES (Ex: Text, Theory Book, Assigned Articles, or other
Journal articles that you find that relate to this topic. **The idea is to HIGHLIGHT the 3-5 Major
topics/ideas that have been discussed ACROSS all of the Assigned Reading material for the week.)
Human Aggression
Human aggression is the complex dynamic of the social self that is often a behavioral
response to a combination of internal and external factors. Aggression can be manifested in
many forms, such as active aggression shown in the Zimbardo study with the guards’ harsh
behavior towards the prisoners, or non-assertive aggression that was shown in the Milgram
study, in which the subjects permitted the experimenter to infringe upon their ethical boundaries
by continuing to obey the experimenters’ orders to administer harmful shocks to the victim
(Haney et al., 1973; Milgram, 1963). Aggression can vary in its presented form based upon
cultural differences, as well as its external trigger, such as alcohol or violent video games
(Kassin et al., 2017). It’s also important to determine how the situation influences the expression
of aggressive behavior. People look for social cues such as norms, authority, peers to determine
how to express their behavior, even if it’s aggressive in nature. (Note: Must be 1 Paragraph (5-7
sentences) / Must contain the appropriate header / Must contain a MINIMUM of 2 SOURCES (Ex: Text,
Theory Book, Assigned Articles, or other Journal articles that you find that relate to this topic. **The idea is
to HIGHLIGHT the 3-5 Major topics/ideas that have been discussed ACROSS all of the Assigned Reading
material for the week.)
CONTENT SUMMARY 4
Interdependence
Interdependence results when two or more interacting individuals have influence on the
behavioral outcomes of each other (Rumble, 2011). Interdependence stems from the
interactionist perspective that human behavior is due to both the individuals’ personality and the
surrounding social context (Kassin et al., 2017; Rumble, 2011). A personality that includes
elements of understanding and dependability, coupled with an environment of mutual partner
control will likely lead to a positive outcome of cooperative interdependence (Rumble, 2011).
Due to cultural differences, the act of interdependence can be more prevalent in certain cultures
and societies (Kassin et al., 2017). It is interesting to see how a culture’s adoption of
interdependence influences much of how the culture operates. (Note: Must be 1 Paragraph (5-7
sentences) / Must contain the appropriate header / Must contain a MINIMUM of 2 SOURCES (Ex: Text,
Theory Book, Assigned Articles, or other Journal articles that you find that relate to this topic. **The idea is

material for the week.)
Conclusion
Behavioral obedience is the action of complying to an order, typically from an authority
or respected figure. Obedience is necessary for many beneficial components of society, but can
also be harmful to society when the obeyed order crosses a legal, ethical, or moral boundary.
Aggression can be a result of negative acts of obedience, such as the Nazi actions of World War
II. Interdependence can play a role in both acts of obedience and aggression, dependent upon the
characteristics of the relationship and individuals’ personalities. Together these behaviors help us
better understand human beings in social contexts. (Note: Must be 1 Paragraph (5-7 Sentences) /

INSTRUCTIONS Components for Content Summary
1. Content Summary must be at least 1.5–2.
2. Each summary must include an integration of the Kassin et al. text chapters, Chadee theory chapters, and two journal articles related to each module (found in the Learn Section). o Use your Kassin et al. textbook to navigate the summary. Then, explore specific issues from the text that the Chadee theories book and the required articles also discuss.
3. The Content Summary must be in current APA format, including a cover page, a reference page, and appropriate subheadings (i.e. introduction, summary points, conclusion, etc.).
4. Using sources outside the required Learn Section reading is allowed, but not required.
5. Cite all your sources you used (should include all read items from the Learn Section, as well as any outside sources used) in current APA format.
Use the following outline in your Content Summary:
1. Introduction a. The introduction should be an overall summary of the Learn Section’s reading material (1–2 paragraphs).
2. Body (Summary Points) a. The body of your summary should include 3, using APA-style headings to separate each one, covering 3 of the major points that span across all reading sources in the module. b. Subsections should be about 1–2 paragraphs long. c. Each subsection should have a minimum of 2 sources cited to support the major points. The 2 required sources MUST come from the assigned readings under that week’s module. (This is to ensure that you are integrating the information, rather than summarizing the sources independently.)
3. Conclusion a. Tie together the major themes you introduced in the body of the summary.
Helpful information:
Note that citing and referencing the Chadee chapters each week is NOT like the Kassin et al. textbook. Kassin et al. wrote all of the chapters so the citation and reference never change. However, each chapter in the Chadee text is written by different authors (Chadee is the editor) so you must cite and reference each chapter differently. Example and instructions attached.
Comments
2. Do not cite by chapters of book titles; author and years only 3. Do not cite or reference by Chadee – use chapter authors 4. Provide complete reference for Chadee chapters. Here is the format: Rumble, A. (2011). Interdependence in social interaction. In D. Chadee (Ed.), Theories of social psychology (pp. 191-208). Wiley. 5. Remove months from references 6. Only capitalize the first word of article title/subtitle in Laczniak et al. reference
Comments
1. Replace "Introduction" heading with title; centered 2. When there are two authors, cite both (Jordan & Zanna, 1999) 3. Note that the Chadee text is an edited book so each chapter is cited and referenced by its author(s). For Module 1, the citation is (Rumble, 2011). Here is the example for chapter 8 (as assigned in Module 1; italicize book title): Rumble, A. (2011). Interdependence in social interaction. In D. Chadee (Ed.), Theories of social psychology (pp. 191-208). Wiley. 4. Center Conclusion heading 5. Use bold font for References heading 6. Only capitalize the first word of article titles/subtitles in references 7. Authors are listed last name, first initial in all references 8. List all authors in the references 9. Only capitalize the first word of book title in reference
2. Do not italicize article titles 3. Only capitalize the first word of chapter, book, and article titles/subtitles 4. Italicize journal titles and volume numbers
Work to weave your sources together rather than summarizing them separately. Choose three topics from the week and cite at least two of the readings when discussing each topic. See rubric for APA edits, noting the corrections for the Chadee chapters.
