Social pedagogical psychology

edit

Social pedagogical psychology emerged at the intersection of three branches of psychology — social psychology, pedagogical psychology and personality psychology. The creators of the direction are A.A. Rean and Ya.L. Kolominsky (Rean A.A., Kolominsky Ya. L. “Social pedagogical psychology.” – St. Petersburg, 1999, 2008). In the most general form, the subject of social pedagogical psychology can be defined as the study of social and psychological patterns, determinants and mechanisms of the processes of learning and education processes. More specifically, the subject area of social pedagogical psychology is best defined through its problem field.

Within the framework of the problematic field of social pedagogical psychology, seven significant areas can be identified:[7]

1.    Social psychology of the student's personality;

2.    Social psychology of student interpersonal relationships;

3.    Social psychology of the teacher's personality;

4.    Psychology of pedagogical communication;

5.    Pedagogical social perception;

6.    Social psychology of management of educational institutions and pedagogical collectives;

7.    Social psychology of family education and child-parental relations.

These areas of social pedagogical psychology are by far the most advanced, both in theoretical terms and in terms of empirical research and the facts obtained. These areas form the basis of the problem field of social pedagogical psychology, but do not exhaust it completely. As part of the direction, a large number of studies were carried out by the founders of the direction, as well as their students and followers.
