Field Psychology Scientific Method Name class Teacher name Date Field Psychology Scientific Method In social psychology, there is a subtopic known as social cognition. Social cognition’s main focus is on how individuals store, process, and apply information concerning social situations and other people. It shows us the role of cognitive processing in our social interaction. In order for people to have the advantage of being part of certain social groups, various psychological processes have to take part and they are controlled by social cognition. Various social signals are of importance to social cognition. These signals enable individuals to learn about the world that surrounds them. These signals include facial expressions such as disgust and fear which warn us of danger, as well as eye gaze direction which shows the direction of interesting things. In the article, “The Role of Social Cognition Skills (SCS) and Social Determination of Health (SDH) in Predicting Symptoms of Mental Illness,” the author uses a quantitative method of research. The article focuses on mental health and psychiatric disorders. In the study, the method used was implemented from a randomized sample assessed in the Colombian National Mental Health Survey to evaluate the role of SCS, SDH, and psycho-physical factors as predictors of mental illness symptoms (Santamaràa-Garcàa, 2020). The results from the assessment showed that the best predictors of symptoms of mental illness were cognitive functioning, the presence of chronic diseases, a medical history of psychiatric disorders, social adverse factors, as well as emotion recognition skills. According to the author, the study provided unprecedented evidence on social factors and their impact on predicting symptoms of mental illness, highlighting the importance of these factors in tracking the onset and early stages of the disease. To explore social cognition and social psychology as a whole and for better understanding, different research methods can be used. The methods used in research to answer questions are both qualitative and quantitative. Qualitative research makes an analysis of data that is not reducible to numbers and includes methods such as interviews, focus groups, naturally occurring data, and structured open-ended questionnaires (Figgou, 2015). Quantitative methods include structured models like Structural Equation Modeling (SEM). In the discussed article, the sole use of SEM as a research method limits the depth of understanding; incorporating qualitative methods like interviews with mental illness patients could have enriched the findings. Employing mixed methods—both qualitative and quantitative—would strengthen the validity and reliability of research outcomes. References Figgou, L. (2015). Social Psychology: Research Methods.
