Social and Dispositional Factors in Prosocial Behaviour

A KS4 GCSE lesson based on the AQA Psychology specification. This lesson centres on factors affecting prosocial behaviour.

Social factors, such as cost of helping and presence of others, and dispositional factors,such as similarities to victim and expertise, are discussed throughout the lesson.

Students will then be provided with 3 different scenarios similar to those found in GCSE examinations. The first two focus on content within the lesson but the third emphasises the use of research methods and mathematics which is also seen in examinations.
