Social psychology is about understanding individual behavior in a social context and to study

of the manner in which the personality, attitudes, motivations, and behavior of the individual

influence and are influenced by social groups. According to the picture above, there are 2 young

boy and girl sitting together and study. The young girl is teaching the young boy something.

Base on my view of point, I can apply representative heuristics, because of the way of the girl

speaking she look like a lecturer. It is rare that seeing a student teaching someone with such a

high knowledge.

The next concept about the picture above is availability heuristics. Because before I came to

library I also saw a lecturer is teaching a student alone in the class. When I see this situation, the

first thing pop in my mind is she is a lecturer and she is teaching a student something.
