Biological(gender and genes) and cultural explanations need not be contradictory. Indeed, they interact. Biological factors operate within a cultural context, and culture builds upon a biological foundation.

The great truth about the power of social influence is but half the truth if separated from its complementary truth: the power of the person. Persons and situations interact in at least three ways.
First, individuals vary in how they interpret and react to a given situation.
Second, people choose many of the situations that influence them.
Third, people help create their social situations.

Thus power resides both in persons and in situations. We create and are created by

our social worlds.

Remember some of these rules:

1. For every 60 points you accumulate, you will get a 1.0 grade in your class standing and this will be added to another 60 points divided by 2 or more! So, the more points you have, the better the grade!

2. Once you have answered the question, you cannot answer it back to regain more points.

3. There are a total of 300 points to accumulate to get a 1.0 in this particular topic on Social Influence or depending on the teacher's discretion if it would be possible to go to the next topic!

Shall we keep a tally of our scores sir?

Next question. Name the great psychologist who was influenced by Charles Darwin and what was his school of thought in Psychology? I need 5 students to answer this!

Sir Francis Galton.


It was Sir Francis Galton (Whitney, 1990), Darwin’s half-cousin, who immediately pursued the implications for psychology. Galton was one of the many scientists who, upon exposure to Darwin’s theory of natural selection, reacted by saying something along the lines of “Of course! Why didn’t I think of that?” By 1865 Galton had published two papers dealing with the inheritance of individual differences, published under the title Hereditary Talent and Character, which were then elaborated in his 1869 book, Hereditary Genius: An Inquiry into its Laws and Consequences
