You would fare much better if you picked one and just asked about that.
Either Sociology or Psychology.
I've seen plenty on Sociology and Psychology both, not to mention information is just flat out plentiful on both subjects. Someone mentioned a book on Social Psychology, so, I wanted to know some more about it.
The more people work on a task the less efficient each one of them is.
In groups, people are lazy, stupid, and immoral.
I will tell you that any college course you take on it is going to be a left wing indoctrination camp.
I only know that from political sciences and sociology...Quote:

My social psychology professor taught me another psych course the next year, and in a paper in that class I made the point that criminals need to be punished. My professor wrote, "The data indicate that punishment does not work," and he took off like 5 points. The political science professor at my last college got fired because he was such a jackass to students with conservative views. He made it his goal to personally humiliate them on a major level in class. It is very hard for professors to get fired, so you can imagine how extreme that guy must have been. That is a very big problem at American colleges.Quote:
