Warm Up:What do we need to be happy, well adjusted individuals?
Friday, 2/20
Objective: I will be able to discuss the role
socialization plays in human development by creating a hypothesis to test the relationship between socialization and TV watching.
Language Objective: I will use a sentence stem to explain
why sociologists cannot experiment with humans.
Socialization The cultural process of learning to
participate in group life. Interactions with parents, family, and later,
people outside of the home socializes each human being.
Sociologists cannot experiment with humans, so: They study monkeys isolated from other
monkeys Children in orphanages
Lack of Socialization Genie Wiley - Feral Children
Perspectives Functionalist stress that groups work
together to create a stable society. Schools serves such a purpose.
The Conflict Perspective sees socialization as perpetuating the status quo.
The Symbolic Interaction Perspective challenged the idea that human nature is biologically determined.
Symbolic Interaction & Socialization Self Concept – the image you have of
yourself. Others serve as the mirror for the development of the self (looking-glass self).
Role Taking – allows us to see ourselves through the eyes of others. Three stages
Imitation Play Game
Generalized other – an integrated conception of the norms, values, and beliefs of one’s society.

humans because ______________ .
Monday, 2/24 Warm Up – Why are some parents good
parents? Why are some parents bad parents?
Objective: I will be able to discuss the role
socialization plays in human development by creating a hypothesis to test the relationship between socialization and TV watching.
Language Objective: I will be able to write using complete
sentences by restating the question in my answer.
Self Composed of two parts
Me created through socialization Accounts for predictability and conformity Considers the consequences of the self.
I Creative part of the self Unpredictable & spontaneous First reaction of the self comes from the I.
Agents of Socialization Family Schools
Hidden curriculum – the informal and formal goals of school
Discipline, order, cooperation, & conformity
Peer Groups (individuals of the same age and interests)
Mass Media
Processes of Socialization Total Institutions
Mental hospitals, cults, prisons Military
Desocialization The process by which people give up old
norms, values, attitudes, and behaviors. Destruction of old self-concepts or
personal identity.
Resocialization Once the self has been broken down
by desocialization, resocialization begins.
People accept new norms, values, attitudes and behaviors.
Rewards and punishments attempt to create the new “identity”.
Also occurs as a child becomes a teenager, when a teenager gets a job, and as the elderly move in retirement.
Anticipatory Socialization Voluntary change Usually occurs in people moving from
one stage of life to another. Preteens observe teens (their reference
group). College seniors talk to people working in
their intended job field.
