Mwahaha. I'm going to try a completely different approach now :) Here's a Psychology post :D
* * *
Question:
During the Olympic Games in London, John and his friend James went to watch a soccer game. After the match, the fans of both teams ended in a fight at the bar. Being a polite and soft spoken man, John did what is unexpected of him and participated in the fight fiercely.
Use the knowledge that you learn in Social Approach, describe John's behaviour.
Answer:
To explain John's behaviour, and even the behaviour of the soccer teams' fans, the Social Identity Theory and the Agency Theory may be used.
In the event that the soccer teams, Team A and Team B, play in the game and Team A wins, a certain fan of Team A will feel superior to fans of Team B. He will then compare downwards towards fans of Team B. This phenomena is also known as social comparison.
When fans of Team B hear these comparisons, they will feel angry and compare themselves upwards through physical violence like shoving or kicking. When fans of Team A see this, they automatically join in and save the Team A fan, assaulting the opposite team's fans in return by identifying themselves through the jerseys they wear or the paint on their faces. As the fight continues, the segregation between the two groups grow stronger and stronger as they start casting each other as their in-group or out-group. This is part of social categorisation.
At this point, John will enter the bar and see the fight. He will process the fact that Team a fans are being beat up by Team B fans and, being a fan of Team A, jump in to 'protect his kin'. Here, he switches off his autonomous state, which is the state when he's polite and soft spoken, to the agentic state, which is when all his actions will not be accounted by him.
This is how a bar fight usually starts, and, using the Social Identity Theory and Agency Theory, it is possible to discuss and describe why and how it happened.
