Step 2:  Conduct web research to explore what happened in the experiment or  study, the findings of the experiment or study, and the flaws and/or  criticisms of the experiment or study.

Step 3:  Based on your textbook readings and web research, compose a post that responds to the following:

  • Explain  the study or experiment you selected, describing what happened in the  experiment or study.  Also, explain any conclusions drawn based on the  experiment or study.  Next, identify flaws and/or criticism of the  experiment or study.
  • Based  on this module’s readings, select at least *two* concepts in social  psychology and explain how the dynamics associated with both concepts  influenced the participants in the study or experiment you selected.
  • Explain  the ways in which the findings from the study or experiment you  selected are relevant today or are no longer relevant today.  In your  explanation, try to avoid opinion only; instead, conduct web research to  include relevant statistics or a more recent study that replicated the  findings of the study or experiment you selected.
  • Include the links from your sources.
