Applied Social Psychology is based on social-psychological theories and seeks to interconnect the knowledge of fundamental research with the solution of questions and problems relevant to the real life context. Within the course we will focus on a number of selected areas that are beneficial to the health education study program and related pedagogical practice. The aim of the subject is to connect social-psychological thinking with practical application in selected areas relevant to the field of education. Students will be supported in critical thinking on the grounds of knowledge of socio-psychological concepts so that they can use these skills for a more thorough understanding of selected social phenomena. Students will be acquainted with the current development of knowledge in the field, especially in the context of various theoretical and methodological approaches.
