This fully editable lesson is designed for the AQA A-Level Specification (June 2019), focusing on Adorno’s F-Scale as a dispositional explanation for obedience. The lesson delves into how personality traits, particularly the authoritarian personality, can influence obedience, using Adorno’s research as a key framework. With interactive activities, quizzes, and exam practice questions, students will gain a thorough understanding of dispositional factors in obedience.
Key Features:
Comprehensive Lesson Slides: Offers a detailed exploration of Adorno’s F-Scale, its development, and how it relates to authoritarian personality traits. Students learn how these traits, formed through harsh parenting, contribute to obedience and prejudice against minority groups.
Interactive Quiz: A multiple-choice quiz designed to assess students’ understanding of Adorno’s F-Scale in a fun and engaging way. Students use A, B, C, or D cards or mini whiteboards to answer questions related to key concepts such as the definition of authoritarian personality and the role of harsh parenting in its development.
Assessment Materials: Includes structured evaluation tasks and practice exam questions on the authoritarian personality. Students are encouraged to critically assess the validity and limitations of dispositional explanations for obedience, comparing them with situational factors. Model answers are provided to guide students in their exam preparation.
Critical Evaluation: The lesson covers strengths and weaknesses of Adorno’s theory, discussing its deterministic nature, political bias, and methodological issues, such as the limitations of correlational research and the validity of the F-scale. Students engage in deeper evaluations, considering alternative explanations like social identity theory.
This resource is perfect for both classroom teaching and independent study, offering students a solid foundation in understanding the dispositional factors contributing to obedience and how personality traits can influence behaviour.
This comprehensive bundle is designed in line with the latest AQA A-Level Specification (published June 2019), though its content and activities are suitable for use across various specifications. It provides everything you need to teach the Social Influence topic in an engaging and structured way, offering 10 complete lessons, each with interactive activities and assessment materials.
Included Lessons:
Types and Explanations of Conformity – Understanding different forms of conformity and their explanations.
Asch’s Research (1951, 1955) – Exploring Asch’s famous experiments on conformity.
Zimbardo’s Research (1971) – Examining the Stanford Prison Experiment and the influence of social roles.
Milgram’s Research (1963) – Investigating obedience to authority through Milgram’s groundbreaking experiments.
