Document Summary

Behaviour: verbal, or talking/language, and nonverbal, such as emblems and power of behavioural input: thin slices . Emblems: gestures that have well-understood meaning within a culture (ok-sign, peace-sign, and etc). Writings or symbols on materials are not considered an emblem in the social psychological context. Thin slices: an approach within social psychology focused on the attributional power of brief exposure to others. Look at the pdf for the experiment on ses & ambiguous social group. Context: provides additional inputs, and can completely change attribution. Schemas: what you expect is what you get: attribution: explanation for an observed behaviour of a social object, attribution theory: watch the heider & simmel (1944) video. Automaticity of attribution: it is very automatic, and attributions are pattern matching (matching patterns you observe with the schema in your head) Internal attribution: attributing a person"s behaviour to something intrinsic to that person (personality, disposition, attitude, or character)
