* Chapter 1 : [[Introduction to social psychology]]
Social psychology is the study of the nature and causes of human social behavior, with an emphasis on how people think of each other and how they relate to each other. As the mind is the axis around which social behavior pivots, social psychologists tend to study the relationship between mind(s) and social behaviors. In early-modern social science theory, John Stuart Mill, Comte and others laid the foundation for social psychology by asserting that human social cognition and behavior could and should be studied scientifically like any other natural science.
 
   
 
* Chapter 2 : [[Research methods in social psychology]]
Social psychology can be said to bridge the gap between "common sense" regarding human behaviour, and sociological and psychological science regarding human behaviour. It can be said to be co-disciplinary with sociology and psychology, providing overlapping theories and research methods in order to form a clearer and more robust picture of social life.
