This course examines how theories, models, methods, and empirical findings from social cognition can be applied to understand psychological processes and problems in different social contexts. Topics include applications to clinical psychology, health psychology, impression formation, social categorization and stereotyping, as well as broader societal and policy-related issues. Particular attention will be devoted to critically evaluating theoretical and empirical evidence and considering its methodological and practical implications.
