They also looked at relationships among individuals in groups and among groups themselves. This gave them insight into how social change occurs, humans\u2019 tendency to conform, and the psychology behind obedience, among other things. We\u2019ll discuss some of the most prominent ideas below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Field Theory and Social Change<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The authors say that one of the earliest figures in social psychology was German-American psychologist Kurt Lewin. He developed field theory, which focuses on how a group or individual\u2019s psychology influences a situation. He established a model of change suggesting that anyone who wants to create change in a person or group must understand the psychological and environmental factors that influence them.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For example, if a doctor\u2019s office wanted to switch from in-office visits to remote telehealth appointments, they would need to understand many factors, including whether patients benefit from physically being in the office, whether patients and staff have the technology and knowledge needed for video visits, and whether patients can measure their own vital signs or if they need a professional to do it for them. Failing to account for any of these factors could prevent the desired change from being effectively implemented.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Lewin\u2019s model involves three steps for effecting change:&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>1) Unfreezing, in which the people involved are made to understand that change is needed (which is difficult because people tend to be naturally resistant to change)&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>2) Changing, in which the new system is put into place (which in groups requires strong leadership and support, and in individuals requires willingness to take on a new mindset)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>3) Freezing, in which the new system becomes routine<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-table\"><table><tbody><tr><td><strong>Other Models of Change<\/strong><br><br>Lewin\u2019s model has been criticized for <a href=\"https:\/\/www.togetherabroad.nl\/blogs\/3\/qee4wt-lewin-s-change-management-model-vs-kotter-s-8-step-model\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">discounting the agency of humans in the process<\/a> of change, with critics saying, for example, that humans must be willing to accept the need to change and can\u2019t be coerced into it. Since Lewis established his model, many other models have followed that do account for this human factor. Some are designed to facilitate organizational change, like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kotterinc.com\/methodology\/8-steps\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">John Kotter\u2019s 8 Steps for Leading Change<\/a>. Kotter\u2019s model involves creating a feeling that change is urgently needed (similar to unfreezing), building a large group of volunteers to lead the change, getting rid of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shortform.com\/blog\/overcoming-barriers-to-change-2\/\">barriers to change<\/a>, and establishing the change (similar to freezing).&nbsp;<br><br>Other models are geared toward catalyzing personal change, such as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.changemanagementreview.com\/introducing-a-new-model-for-personal-change-the-scared-so-what-change-model\/#:~:text=In%20the%20SCARED%20model%2C%20during,SCARED%20cycle%20until%20they%20can.\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Grant Van Ulbrich\u2019s \u201cSCARED-SO WHAT\u201d model<\/a>. This consists of two major stages, each characterized by six elements (represented by the acronyms SCARED and SO WHAT). The SCARED stage begins with surprise at the need for change and ends with a decision to either move forward or reject the change (if you decide to reject the change, you\u2019re likely to repeat the SCARED stage until you can <a href=\"https:\/\/www.shortform.com\/blog\/be-decisive\/\">make a decision<\/a> to move forward).&nbsp;<br><br>The SO WHAT stage begins with a strategy for creating the change and ends with taking ownership of the change you\u2019ve established. Both this model and Kotter\u2019s model are much more detailed and actionable than Lewin\u2019s model but still draw from some of the same principles of field theory.<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Conformity and Obedience<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The authors note that while Lewin focused on change, other scientists like Polish-American psychologist Solomon Asch studied humans\u2019 tendency toward conformity. He conducted an experiment called the Asch Paradigm, in which participants were placed into groups and asked to identify which of three lines on a card matched the length of a line on another card. They did a total of 18 such questions, each called a \u201ctrial.\u201d The participants didn\u2019t know that the other members of the group were actors instructed to give incorrect answers.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Asch found that 75% of participants conformed to the group\u2019s incorrect answers on at least one trial but that none of them conformed on every trial. He also found that 26% of participants never conformed and always gave the right answer despite the group\u2019s dissent, suggesting that certain people are less prone to conformity than others. Additionally, he found that if just one of the actors provided a correct answer, the actual subjects were much more likely to also provide the correct answer\u2014this suggests that if even a small minority diverges from the group, it makes others much less likely to conform as well.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How has social psychology changed over the years?
