Task 1: 

You have been commissioned to provide an Advisory Report for the Management Committee of Pathway Young Persons’ Home for Challenging Behaviours. The Committee wish to know how they might increase obedience and reduce or promote conformity, referring to three measures for obedience and three for conformity based on your expert knowledge of social psychology, and supported by psychological evidence. Conclude your Report with several Recommendations for Action by this Committee to take over the next three months.

Task 2: 

The events surrounding the Kitty Genovese murder seem to indicate that people who are bystanders are not willing to intervene to help a vulnerable person. However, might the 2016 Sutton Coldfield incident, present a different view of bystander behaviour?

Provide a detailed explanation [not exceeding 1000 words] of psychological approaches to bystander behaviour and social loafing interventions in the case of Kitty Genovese and the Sutton Coldfield incident, referring to appropriate studies and theories. Include a comparison of some key aspects such as ‘decision-making’ and an evaluation of the validity of social influence theory with regard to bystander intervention.
