Write a paper, two to three pages long (double-spaced, 1 margins, 12 pt font), in which

you discuss three different course concepts drawn from the first five chapters of the

textbook (and related lecture notes). For each concept, identify in detail how it was

illustrated in the film, comparing the film version to what we know from group

dynamics research (based on the text and class notes). I recommend breaking up the

paper into sections with headings that identify the concept to be discussed. An alternative

is to discuss elements of the film and discuss whatever concepts apply to that element of

the film, highlighting in bold text the course concepts you are applying. You dont need

an introductory paragraph, and a references section is only needed if you cite studies not

mentioned in class or the textbook, but do identify the studies you are citing. Do NOT

cite the textbook (which is a secondary source) and do not use quotes from the book.

You must, as one of your three concepts, discuss task and social cohesion in this paper.

The other two concepts discussed can be any two from the list below:

Primary vs. secondary/social groups need to belong

functions of groups (BIGSIX) similarity principle

case study method complementarity principle

social comparison social rejection

sociometer theory collectivism vs. individualism

social support collective self-esteem
