self discrepancy theory
the consequences of making actual - ideal or actual - ought self-comparisons --> revealing self-discrepancies
self-regulation
strategies we put in place to address mismatch between our (current/actual) behaviour to an ideal or ought standard
3 self-schemas
- actual
- ideal
- ought

according to Higgins (1987) self-discrepancy theory
actor observer effect
- Nisbett & Jones
- extension of the correspondence bias
- tendency to attribute OWN behaviour EXTERNALLY but OTHER's INTERNALLY
correspondence bias
thinking that observable behaviour is caused by/is linked with (corresponds to) underlying personal attributions

ULTIMATE attribution error
attributing
BAD OUTgroup behaviour INTERNALLY
GOOD INgroup behaviour INTERNALLY
and
GOOD OUTgroup behaviour EXTERNALLY
BAD INgroup behaviour EXTERNALLY
covariation model
- Kelley
- cause of behaviour is assigned to the CO-VARIENT that fits most closely
- Consistency / Distinctiveness / Consensus
- high/low:
all high = EXTERNAL attribution
high + low + low = INTERNAL attribution
primacy effect
according to Asch's Configural Model

- order of presentation effect whereby EARLIER presented info has disproportionate influence on social cognition
recency effect
according to Asch's Configural Model

- order of presentation effect whereby LATER PRESENTED info has disproportionate influence on social cognition
stereotype
SIMPLIFIED image of group member
prototype
TYPICAL/IDEAL image of group member
fuzzy sets
categories of features organised around a prototype
accentuation principle
similarities within group and
dissimilarities betw groups

amplified if categorisation has subjective importance
misattribution paradigm
according to Schachter's theory of emotional lability
(salt water/adrenaline injection experiment)
- misattribution is attributing an event to something with which it really has no connection or association
self perception theory
Bem
we gain knowledge about ourselves only by making self-attributions from observing our own behaviour
disconfirmation bias
tendency to notice, refute or consider as weak any arguments that are contrary to prior beliefs

-foot in the door (small at first then big thing)
-door in the face (outrageously large first then smaller thing)
-low balling (changing rule once agreement is reached)
selective exposure hypothesis
people then to avoid potentially dissonant information (...I don't even what to hear about that ..)
self-affirmation theory
people reduce the impact of threat to self-concept by focusing on or affirming their COMPETENCE in OTHER AREAS

Piliavin / bystander-calculus model

failing to help can cause bystander distress as they emphasise with victim
