Social Learning of Cognitive Processes
Abstract Social learning is the process of learning through social means such as observation, or instruction, and is an efficient process for learning for both human and non-human animals (Golkar, Castro, & Olsson, 2014). The literature on social learning covers a wide array of research. . However, there is growing work being done in that space where social and cognitive psychology connect. This work covers varied cognitive processes such as decision making (Fuqua & Newman, 1994), problem solving (Fessler, 2006; Lin et al., 2020), and cognitive susceptibility to social structures (Bigler & Liben, 2007; Gelman et al., 2004; Oostenbroek & Over, 2016; Rhodes et al., 2012). This paper attempts to present the literature on social learning and how it relates to cognitive processes, and then proposes a novel research study designed to investigate the links between social learning and cognitive processes in a problem-solving task.

Bias and Racism: A Social Learning Perspective
Abstract Social learning is thought to be an integral part in bias formation. The implicit association test is considered the holy grail of implicit bias, and yet, there are many criticisms of the IAT. Social learning of bias is one intersection of these two topics that while investigated, fails to consider all possible options. In this proposal I present the current literature on the social learning of bias, review some of the issues with the IAT, and propose a novel investigation of the social learning of bias using a social learning intervention paired with the implicit association test. I present a proposed analysis plan, review the paper as whole and present potential outcomes of the study, and discuss limitations of the proposed study, methodology, and the work as whole.
