An emphasis will be placed on the development of these theories as well as how they can be applied in real world contexts. A major goal of this course is to make you aware that social psychology is a discipline that can be applied in your daily interactions with others. This course will provide you with an opportunity to learn a great deal, but you must be active participants in your own education. In addition, extra reading materials will be assigned from time to time, including some materials placed on reserve in the Science Learning Center, located in Life Science room 106. You will need your UTA ID card to check out these materials.
Attendance is the sole responsibility of the student.
Students will be responsible for all lecture material, and each examination will contain several questions from lecture that is not covered in any of the assigned readings. Content of the four exams will stress both the readings and lecture materials. The format of each exam will be 50 multiple-choice questions. Please note that the instructor reserves the right to alter the date of the exams and the topics covered should the need arise during the semester. Due to the size of the class it is not possible to schedule individual make-up exams during the semester.
