Have you ever wondered what Social Psychology exactly is...........? Oh well, here's a definition anyway. In his text book Social Psychology, David G. Myers defines it as: " The scientific study of how people think about, influence, and relate to one another." Sounds like the kind of stuff each of us deals with every day, Huh? Please, read on.............. Some interesting topics that are covered in the study of Social Psychology include: self concept, self efficacy, gender, culture, cults, prejudice, and conflict within society, just to name a few. But that's enough mumbo jumbo, lets find some interesting sites.
