- Affect: How negative vs. positive an emotion is
- Normative statements: In an oversimplified way, statements about social proof / peer pressure.
- Descriptive norms: Describing social proof (what others think)
- Injunctive norms: Telling you what you should do based on what others think
- Reactance: A psychological theory that says we resist challenges to our freedom.
