1) Summarize the psychological concept of pluralistic ignorance by providing an overview of the
core aspects discussed in the literature

pluralistic ignorance for the individual and the group by providing evidence from previous
research
3) outline the different methodological approaches to measure pluralistic ignorance
How do you complete the SECOND ASSIGNMENT?
When completing this assignment, answer the following questions (and provide evidence from
the literature):
1) What is the psychological concept of pluralistic ignorance, and why is it important to study it?
2) In which domains has pluralistic ignorance been studied so far?
3) What are the possible responses to pluralistic ignorance, and what are the implications
thereof?
4) Consider the context of South Africa and outline at least three different domains in which one
could assume the existence of pluralistic ignorance. Provide a justification.
