Then, complete the following: Interpret a depicted voluntary (i.e., friend or romantic) relationship from a social psychological perspective. Point out specific examples to illustrate the following: Which of the various factors in attraction are present in this relationship? Is the relationship based on friendship or love? If love, what type of love is portrayed? Examine a scenario from the source you selected that illustrates either aggression or prosocial behavior. Identify specific course concepts in your analysis, pointing out relevant theory and research. Note that you must utilize at least one relevant scholarly source in addition to your textbook for this portion of the discussion. Aggression: Examine research that examines a possible source of aggression (e.g., the media, weapons, alcohol, environmental factors, etc.). Give specific examples. Explain why this particular variable is/is not harmful. How does this theory/research apply to the scenario you described? Prosocial Behavior: Examine research on prosocial behavior, predicting who will help whom, when, and why (e.g., empathy, cultural norms, gender, religiosity, etc.).
