About This Activity
Baylor TIP Camp is primarily residential, but families may select a day camp option. Students will stay in the dorms with Resident Assistants Sunday night through Friday nights, going home Saturday morning. Course offerings will run from 9am to 4pm, and social events and activities will be held every evening. Meals are included with registration. Students who elect to commute to camp will have the option of participating in the breakfast and staying for evening activities if they choose. Social Psychology Aristotle asserted that human beings are by nature social animals. Philosophers, theologians, and social scientists alike have spent centuries studying and debating the dynamics of our relationships with one another. Our need to conform to group expectations can be so strong that it often outweighs our personal wisdom and knowledge, usually without us even realizing it. Delve into the complexities of social influence and group dynamics as you dissect the science behind our social interactions. Through discussions, debates, and case studies, deepen your understanding of the forces that influence our behaviors and analyze how our social interactions shape our individual growth and development. Gain a foundation in the ethical principles that shape psychological research as you learn how social scientists study human behavior and apply those principles to your own work by designing your own social experiment.
