Social Psych

 Compliance- a person changing their outward behavior, but not their inner beliefs to conform to their social group that is behaving in a certain way

Extroverts shushing others at the cinema because they know it's not appropriate to talk







Obedience- compliance to demand made by authority figure

This kid's adult probably told them to clean up the inevitable mess they made eating popcorn like this, and the kid probably did






Social facilitation- phenomenon where people try & do harder when others are present 

These two obviously were trying to do better and work harder by buying more and more snacks cause they were hanging out together :)






Group polarization- people having more extreme beliefs after a discussion in a group

A person not on either side of the debate who spends a lot of time with people who talk about being "Team Jacob people" will likely become a member of that group















Reciprocity norms- giving an equal response to a behavior you get (ex: saying thank you when someone holds the door open; baking a cake for someone that made you a pie)

These kids have awesome parents who bought them popcorn, so they will share the popcorn with them

 Frontal lobe Norepinephrine In (a) Dark World where everyone was the same, people where too tired and rageful to care. Everyone was aggressive, and nobody used any of that aggression for good. Until.....bam bam bam....somebody came along to beat people into shape. Sometimes they made people so anxious they would never leave their house again. But mostly, Flipside looked at the good aspects of anxiety and personality. She encouraged the people of Dark World to think about what makes them different, and accept that these differences are mostly beneficial. She loaded them up with a versatile idea called Nore. Nore is the concept of being fearful: of an increased heart beat. People were fearful of being fearful until they realized fear is what drives them. They were scared of not having a good day, so they got up and made a nice breakfast. They were scared of having a bad job, so they kept looking for one they found.
