FILM AND VIDEOS
Candid Camera Classics for Social Psychology consists of 16 episodes that I selected; with Allen
Funt’s assistance; to dramatize many key social psychology topics; such as pliance;
conformity; obedience; social influence; authority; power; morality; and bias in field surveys。
Each of these creative gems is funny and entertaining; while teaching important messages about
human nature。 Since they vary in duration from 2 to 6 minutes; a given episode can be used to
launch a lecture as a thematic overview; to underscore a conclusion from a body of empirical
research; or to provide a source for opening a discussion of the behaviors that the class and the
instructor observed together。 The Candid Camera Classics e with an instructor’s guide (that I
prepared with Allen Funt) that will assist teachers in getting the most mileage from using them。
