Here are the definitions of some basic social psychology concepts using technical vocabulary:

• Social Psychology: The scientific study of how thoughts, feelings, and behaviors of individuals are influenced by the presence, actual or imagined, of others.

• Socialization: The lifelong process of learning the values, beliefs, and behaviors that are expected within a particular social group or culture.

• Attitudes: Evaluative judgments (positive, negative, or neutral) about people, objects, or ideas. These can influence how we behave towards them.

• Attributions: The process of assigning causes to events or behaviors. We try to understand why people do what they do, attributing their actions to internal factors (personality) or external factors (situational).

• Communication: The exchange of information between two or more people through verbal (spoken words) and nonverbal (facial expressions, body language, tone of voice) channels.

• Ideology: A set of beliefs or doctrines that guide a person’s or group’s political or social philosophy.

• Conscience: The internal sense of right and wrong that guides our moral behavior. It’s influenced by socialization and personal values.

• Social Perception: The process by which we perceive and interpret the social world around us, including people, situations, and their behaviors.

• Group Behavior: How individuals act, think, and feel when they are part of a group. Group dynamics can influence conformity, leadership, and social facilitation.

• Schemes: Mental frameworks that help us organize and interpret information. They can be helpful for understanding situations quickly, but can also lead to stereotypes and biases if not applied critically.
