learning on how our society and specific

communities, or groups works so we can be a part
of them

It’s a process of working together in developing

responsibility in our community.

Individual learns to conform to the norms and values

in a group and develops his/her own self by learning
and knowing about his/her own self from the others.

TYPES OF SOCIALIZATION

1. Primary Socialization- occurs early in a child’s lifestyle and is primarily

due to have an impact directly from the family and close friends.

2. Secondary Socialization -occurs when a person learns on

appropriate behavior to be displayed within a smaller group which still
part of a larger society.

3. Anticipatory Socialization-Adolescence is initiated

between the ages of childhood and adulthood.
TYPES OF SOCIALIZATION

4. Professional or Developmental Socialization- This process

of socialization occurs during the early years of an individual's life. It
develops his skills and attitudes for the future and prepares him for
the various roles and responsibilities that he will assume as an adult.

5. Re-Socialization- When an individual moves to a new group, he has to

learn the new values and beliefs of the new group. This process of re
socialization helps him to get used to the new ways of life.
THREE PARTS OF SOCIALIZATION

1. Context- denotes culture, language, social

structures, and the individual’s rank within them. It
includes the history and roles played by the people
and institutions In the past.

2. Content and Process- the work or activity in socialization.

Content refers to the details of what passed from a member to a
new member. While process means the interactions and ways
these new norms, values and customs are thought to a novice.
THREE PARTS OF SOCIALIZATION

3. Results and Outcomes-refers to what happens

to an individual after being exposed to a particular
contents and process.
CONTEXT OF SOCIALIZATION

The Biological Context

• Biological features are regularly
suggested as sources of human
behavior.
• Sociobiologists suggest that some
human capacities may be "wired
into" our biological makeup.
CONTEXT OF SOCIALIZATION

Psychological Context- composed of

(1) emotional states and
unconsciousness
(2) cognitive theories of development
(3) social and historical events
(4) social position
as part of the context
CONTEXT OF SOCIALIZATION

The Psychological Context

Emotional States and the Unconscious
• The primary factor in the psychological context
of socialization is the psychological state of the
person being socialized. Psychological states
include feelings such as fear, anger, grief, love,
and happiness or a sense of emotional
deprivation.

CONTEXT OF SOCIALIZATION

Cognitive development Theories

The most influential theorist of intellectual development was
the Swiss psychologist Jean Piaget.

A sharp observer of children's development, Piaget stressed

that children need to master the skills and operations of one
stage of intellectual development before they are able to
learn something at the next stage.
CONTEXT OF SOCIALIZATION

SOCIAL AND HISTORICAL EVENTS

• Major social and historical events can be a force in
socializing an entire generation. Such major events
as the Great Depression of the 1930s, the
Holocaust in Europe during World War II, or the
civil rights movement that took shape in the United
States in the 1960s have profound implications for
individual socialization.
CONTEXT OF SOCIALIZATION

Social Position as Part of the Context Your family's social

class, economic position, and ethnic background--as well as
your gender--can affect the ways in which you will be
socialized. People in more advantageous state, tend to
develop higher self-evaluations. As a result, they feel justified
in having more resources. Similarly, those in less desired
positions tend to have lower self-evaluations and may feel
that their lower status is deserved (Della Fave, 1980).
CONTEXT OF SOCIALIZATION

Socialization is also known as enculturation.

• Enculturation occurs when cultural knowledge is
passed on to the next bearer which will
perpetuate and ensure the continuance of their
traditions and practices (Santarita and Madrid,
2016).
CONTEXT OF SOCIALIZATION

Overall enculturation and socialization process results to:

Identity formation – An individual’s identity is formed

through his interaction with other people. A person’s
socialization with individuals or groups allows him or her
to imbibe certain characteristics and interests that
contribute to his/her identity. (Idea derived from
Newman, 2012).
CONTEXT OF SOCIALIZATION

• Norms and values – On the other hand, norms are

culturally determined rules that guide people
regarding what is right, wrong, proper, or improper.
• Norms create predictability in daily affairs and
interactions, making it easier to live with other
members of society (Newman, 2012).
• These norms are fundamental to the establishment
of social order in any society (Newman, 2012).
Status

Status – position that an individual can

occupy in society (Newman, 2012).
• It is not ranked position, but simply a
label that implies certain roles that
must be performed.
2 Types of Status

• Achieved status is one that a person has earned or

chosen based on his/her abilities and hard work.
This is usually signified by a certain profession,
such as a professional athlete.
• Ascribed status is not earned, and it is not
something that people have control over. For
instance, it can be ascribed to a person's race or
sex. Also, it is not usually a choice in most matters.
