Creation
[edit]This article was an assignment for Even Heit, Social Psychology, UC Merced, Spring 2007.
Who created the theory?
[edit]The intro text says "Social impact theory was created by Mariah Castonguay" whereas the original research section says "The theory was developed in 1981 by Bibb Latané". Assuming that there isn't some strange pseudonym shenanigans going on, can this discrepancy be clarified? Taneb (talk) 15:20, 14 May 2017 (UTC)
I see the same problem. There are some google results using this phrase. I can not find any work by Mariah Castonguay with a quick online search. In the German version the name Mariah Castonguay does not appear at all. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 143.164.1.12 (talk) 09:55, 13 September 2017 (UTC)
