PSY 345: Social Psychology McAuliff Personal Application Paper PERSONAL APPLICATION PAPER In addition to reading and thinking about the concepts covered in the text, an important part of the learning process includes applying these concepts to your own life and experiences. To facilitate this process, a personal application paper must be uploaded on Moodle no later than 10am on Thursday, May 16. The paper should be typed (12 characters/inch font), three to five pages in length, and double-spaced with one inch margins. Late papers will not be accepted and students not turning in papers will receive a 0. The personal application paper will count for 25% of your final grade. For the paper, students should select one or two central topics discussed during the semester and write about how the topic(s) is relevant to you and your life. For example, for the chapter on prejudice, you might write about a time you directly or indirectly experienced some form of prejudice. Alternatively, you could analyze a television commercial with an eye toward the material covering the use of persuasion to increase compliance. Remember, this assignment is intended to help you recognize how the material covered in class is personally relevant, as well as to encourage you to think critically about the concepts presented instead of passively accepting them as truths. Thus it is acceptable (and commendable) to include in your paper a discussion of the reasons why you agree/disagree with what the author is saying. To reiterate, each paper must have the following two components: a review (including proper citation) of the concept from the text to be discussed; and second, your thoughts/feelings on this topic and a discussion of how it applies to your life including whether you agree/disagree with what the author has said.

Social psychology is an important aspect in our everyday lives. Our thoughts, feelings and
behavior are all influenced by our surroundings. Personally I use social psychology in my day to
day activities. I am an Armenian-American born in the United States. The attitudes and perceptions
of Americans towards particular groups and culture manifest themselves in daily life, news, media,
academics and fashion among other fields. Throughout the following essay, I will be discussing in
my opinion various aspects related to social psychology.

Different theories explain the influence of parents on development. Traditional developmental
psychologists like Erikson and Freud emphasized on the huge impact of parents while more recent
theories challenge this assumption by showing that there are other forces outside the family that
have greater influence, for example, peers. Personally my parents have had a profound impact in
most aspects of my life including my religious beliefs. Different styles of parenting involve
different levels of freedom for the child. In authoritarian parenting there is establishing of rules
which children need to follow to the letter. In this case, children have very little contribution in
