R198: The Psychology Behind Survivor in Splash Spring 2011 (Mar. 27, 2011)
After 22 seasons, Survivor is one of the few reality television shows that has stood the test of time. Not only a game of luck or brute strength, this social experience exposes human interaction at its best…and worst. Which strategy works best: loyalty, backstabbing or going it alone? It takes more than smarts and physique to outlast the competition. In this course, we will examine the underlying social relations and mental processes that have influenced the final outcomes. Discover why some contestants have the mental stamina needed to outwit and outplay while others lack the skills necessary to survive.
