Name of resource: social psychology studies 'spectacles' activity
Submitted by: Aidan Sammons
Specification details: AQA-B
Other specifications:  
Guidance: Three studies: one social facilitation, one conformity & one obedience, chosen because
they are likely to be unfamiliar to most students.  Method and results are given for each.  Can be 
used for a 'spectacles' activity in which different students/groups of students assess the studies in 
terms of (1) aims/conclusions; (2) internal validity; (3) external validity; (4) ethics.  Good for
developing 'discuss' question skills.
