Zusammenfassung

Die meisten sozialpsychologischen Lehrbücher beginnen einleitend mit Alltagsbeispielen sozialen Verhaltens oder sie setzen eine formale Definition der Sozialpsychologie an den Anfang. Wir halten es für eine bessere Methode, Sie mit unserem Fachgebiet vertraut zu machen, indem wir zunächst exemplarisch einige klassische sozialpsychologische Studien beschreiben. Diese sollen Ihnen einen Eindruck von den Forschungsfragen vermitteln, mit denen sich die Forschenden in der Sozialpsychologie beschäftigen, und von den dabei verwendeten Methoden. Erst danach präsentieren wir eine formale Definition der Sozialpsychologie. Anschließend erörtern wir Unterschiede zwischen der Sozialpsychologie und ihren benachbarten Fachgebieten. Die zweite Hälfte des Kapitels ist der Geschichte der Sozialpsychologie gewidmet; wir werden sie von den Anfangsjahren um 1900 bis in die heutige Zeit behandeln. Unsere amerikanischen Kolleginnen und Kollegen betonen gerne, dass ein großer Teil dieser Geschichte in den USA stattfand. Aus europäischer Sicht möchten wir jedoch darauf hinweisen, dass die Entwicklung der Sozialpsychologie in starkem Maße von europäischen Forschenden beeinflusst wurde. Dieser Einfluss setzte bereits ein, bevor sich die Sozialpsychologie in Europa etabliert hat.
