Social psychology
Social psychology is all about how our thoughts, feelings and behaviours are affected by other people.
Some of the questions that social psychologists ask include:
- Why do people copy each other?
- Why do they obey orders?
- What makes one person attracted to another?
- When do people help each other, and why?
- Why do people act so differently in groups?
