Social Foundations of Self IV: Self in Digital Communication

266
Since the early 2000s, computer-mediated communication (CMC) has grown rapidly, playing a crucial role in self-development.

Social Facilitation

Not all intergroup interactions lead to negative outcomes. Sometimes, being in a group situation can improve performance.

Bullying

A modern form of aggression is bullying. As you learn in your study of child development, socializing and playing with other children is beneficial for children’s psychological development. However, as you may have experienced as a child, not all play behavior has positive outcomes. Some children are aggressive and want to play roughly.
