Almost all contemporary sociologists saw socialization as a cooperative effort in which the individual
A 15 F
develops a sense of self in relationship to others, and society is recreated as a generalized other in the
individual’s mind.
A 6 F
Assertiveness supposes being anxious and passive.
A 4 T
Body language is another way of conveying meaning to people around us.
A 25 Contemporary psychologists examined systematically the changes people undergo following adolescence and T
they viewed several stages in life as presenting new crises that require new adjustments.
A 13 Contemporary sociologists interested in social development, try to determine how social interaction shapes T
the individual’s identity or sense of self.
A 10 Contemporary sociologists see development as a results of the interaction of genetic potential and socially T
derived factors.
If human behaviour were genetically determined, children would develop characteristically human behaviour
A 11 T
patterns, with or without social interaction; and males and females in one culture would behave in much the
same way as their counterparts in another.
A 18 Parents socialize their children into the world they know, the one into which they (the parents) have been T
socialized, and with which they are most comfortable.
A 20 Peers provide young people with their first experience with egalitarian relationships, opportunities to test T
what they are taught by adults, and group support for developing alternative norms and values.

people’s responses toward us (the looking-glass self)
A 23 F
Television can never encourage pro-social behaviour and provide positive models.
A 17 The family is perhaps the weakest basic agent of socialization in that it is the last, and possibly the least F
impportant influence on the individual.
A 21 The mass media (especially television) represent the most important agent of socialization, never F
controversial.
8
A 12 The psychologist Erik Erikson was primarily interested in personality: how the individual develops T
characteristic ways of thinking and behaving.
A 19 The school does not give youngsters experience in dealing with a large, bureaucratic organization in which T
the same rules are not supposed to apply to everyone and individuals are valued in terms of their appearance.
A 16 There are five primary agents of socialization that operate both independently and interdependently: the T
family, school, peer groups, mass media, and refernce groups.
A 8 F
There aren’t too many changes that people undergo as they mature and grow older.
A 22 There is evidence that violence or primetime programmes encourages aggressive behaviour and that T
commercials promote sex stereotyping.
A 3 F
When interacting the meaning is always one-sided.
