Document Summary
5. 1 describe how social interaction is the foundation of personality. Socialization is a matter of nurture rather than nature: a century ago, most people thought human behaviour resulted from biological instinct, for us as human beings, it is our nature to nurture. Jean piaget believed that human development involves both biological maturation and gaining social experience. Carol gilligan found that gender plays an important part in moral development, with males relying more on abstract standards of rightness and females relying more on the effects of actions on relationships. Charles horton cooley used the term looking-glass self to explain that we see ourselves as we imagine others see us. Erik h. erikson identified challenges that individuals face at each stage of life from infancy to old age. 5. 3 analyze how the family, school, peer groups, and the mass media guide the socialization process.
