After reading the chapter and learning about Social Psychology, locate a recent article in the popular media (like a newspaper or magazine) that illustrates a concept in Social Psychology. (The eBook is a good place to find a topic). Discuss which Social Psychology concept is being discussed, then locate at least one piece of scientific research (like a scholarly journal) on the topic. You may not write about the work of Stanley Milgram, Solomon Ashe, or Phillip Zimbardo.
Be sure to write a summary which compares and contrasts what the popular article seems to be saying about the topic versus what the research article says about the same subject. The length should be 2-double spaced pages (not more than 3).
All outside source information must be paraphrased and cited/referenced. Direct quotes are not permitted on any assessment in this course.
