Culture Social Psychology

Note the following regarding analysis papers: The analysis paper is not a formal essay—do not include an introduction or conclusion. Do not include the date, your name, the instructor’s name, or the course title at the beginning of the analysis paper. (You may include a title page, but a title page is not required.) Format the analysis paper using Times New Roman 12-point font, double-spacing, and one-inch margins all around. The analysis paper will be 1.5–2 pages long (not less than 1.5 pages and not more than 2 pages).

First Analysis Paper Select a short video, such as a commercial or a TikTok video, to use for a cultural analysis. Make certain that the video is not too short so that you will be able to address the following questions: What cultural beliefs and attitudes are communicated (directly and indirectly)? What values, norms, and morals are communicated (directly and indirectly)? What customs, social roles, and symbols/rituals are communicated (directly and indirectly)? In what ways do the cultural elements that you have identified help people adapt to the physical, social, and metaphysical environment in which they live? (Address at least 1 of these environments in your paper.)

NOTE: the following is a summary from the textbook of how culture helps people adapt: Culture and the Physical Environment Technological innovations and group living have facilitated human adaptation to the natural environment. Adaptation to the physical environment depends on the challenges of local environments and the unique needs and values of the cultural groups that occupy them. Culture and the Social Environment People in every culture must adapt to their social environment in terms of uncertainty about what one can and should do and orienting the self toward one’s relationships and personal goals. Culture as praxis (i.e., practical ways of doing things). Collectivistic cultures emphasize cooperation and group welfare. Individualistic cultures emphasize values such as individual achievement. This distinction has implications for how people conceptualize themselves, experience and display emotions, and form attitudes about outgroup members. Modernization has a range of consequences, including increased mobility, that determine which values are most important to members of a culture. Culture and the Metaphysical Environment Cultural worldviews help people understand why they are alive, what they should be doing while they are alive, and what will happen to them when they are dead. Both faith in the cultural worldview and the maintenance of self-esteem manage the potential for anxiety stemming from the awareness of mortality. Because these are symbolic constructs, maintaining faith in them depends primarily on social consensus and validation. As a result, people defend them vehemently when threatened by others who challenge their views. Tests of terror management theory support the hypothesis that reminding people of their mortality increases protection of their worldviews and that undermining the worldview increases thoughts about death. Culture as a Synthesis of Human-Created Adaptations Humans adapt to each of the three environments simultaneously because each is heavily influenced by adaptations in the other two domains. Cultures can be defined as either holistic or analytic, on the basis of different metaphysical traditions. Many aspects of a given culture reflect its adaptation to all three environments.
