What is a Group? Composed of people who share several features, including: *They are in regular contact with one another *They share some ways of thinking, feeling, and behaving *They take one another’s behaviors into account *They have one or more interests or goals in common

Social Category Vs. Social Aggregate Social Category-people who share a social characteristics EX: High School Seniors Social Aggregate-People temporarily in the same place at the same time EX: People at a movie theater These people may end up forming groups: For example, you may end up in the food court after the movie sitting by people who watched the movie as well. After overhearing their conversation you interject your opinion, you all start talking, and then you realize you have an interest in another movie……..

What is a Primary Group? People who are emotionally close, know one another well. And seek one another’s company

Primary Relationship Interactions that are intimate, personal, caring and fulfilling

List of Primary Groups and Web Make a list of your primary groups and make a web of people that would be a member of the group How do primary groups develop: 1. Small size 2. Face-to-Face contact 3. Continuous contact 4. Proper social environment

Functions of a Primary Group Emotional Support: Strong emotionally ties allow people to do things they would not normally do….EX: you are exhausted, but your friend begs you to quiz her one more time on the material for the quiz tomorrow. You do it because you are committed to your friendship. Socialization: Promote adult socialization EX: your friends in college are going to introduce you to things that are different than what you experienced in high school Encourage Conformity: Teach group members the appropriate norms and values, put pressure on groups to conform EX: Your friends may give you a hard time for doing something illegal, therefore you will not continue down this path.

What is a Secondary Group? People who share only part of their lives while focusing on a goal or task EX: People you work with, members of your Sociology class Secondary relationships: Impersonal interactions involving limited parts of personalities EX: relationship between a teacher and a student
