ORGANIZATIONS
 OBJECTIVES:
The learners should be able to:
1. Define what a social group is.
2. Differentiate primary from
secondary group.
 CONCEPT OF SOCIAL GROUPS
EVERYONE BELONGS TO A GROUP; YOUR RACE,
GENDER, FAVORITE SPORTS TEAM, YOUR COLLEGE, EVEN
THE PLACE WHERE YOU WERE BORN WERE ALL
EXAMPLES OF GROUPS. SOMETIMES GROUPINGS ARE
DETERMINED BY FACTORS RELATED TO WHO WE ARE
(SEX, AGE, RACE/ETHNICITY) BUT IN MANY OTHER
CASES, THEY ARRIVE IN A SOMEWHAT ARBITRARY
FASHION. IN SCHOOL, YOU WOULD LIKELY ASSOCIATE
WITH CLASSMATES WHO SHARE THE SAME INTERESTS
AS YOU DO LIKE HAVING A COMMON HOBBY OR SPORTS
AFFILIATION OR EVEN FASHION SENSE OR EVEN LOVE OF
 WHAT IS A GROUP?

A GROUP IS COMPOSED OF TWO OR MORE

PERSONS INTERACTING WITH EACH OTHER
AND GUIDED BY A SET OF NORMS. IT IS ALSO
DEFINED AS SPECIFIED NUMBER OF
INDIVIDUALS WHERE EACH RECOGNIZES
MEMBERS AS DISTINCT FROM NON-MEMBERS.
 BASIC CLASSIFICATIONS OF SOCIAL GROUPS
1. Primary Groups
Primary groups are marked by
concern for one another, shared
activities and culture, and long
periods of time spent together.
They are influential in developing
an individual’s personal identity.
(Contreras, Antonio P. et al. “Social Groups”. Understanding Culture, Society and Politics. Quezon City: Phoenix Publishing
House, Inc. 2016)
The goal of primary groups is
actually the relationships
themselves rather than
achieving some other purpose.
The examples of a primary
group but not limited to be
your family and childhood and
close friends.
IT IS A SMALL GROUP
CHARACTERIZED BY
INTIMATE, FACE-TO-FACE
ASSOCIATION AND
COOPERATION AMONG
THE MEMBERS. IT SERVES
AS AN AVENUE FOR THE
MEMBERS TO SOCIALIZE
AND TO DEVELOP THEIR
ROLES IN THE GROUP.
 SAMPLE GROUPS:
•Family,
•Play group,
•Village/Neighborhood,
•Work-team
•Barkada
 2. SECONDARY GROUPS
Secondary relationships involve weak
emotional ties and little personal
knowledge of one another. In contrast to
primary groups, secondary groups don’t
have the goal of maintaining and
developing the relationships themselves.
These groups are based on usual or habitual
interests or affairs. It includes groups in which
one exchanges explicit commodities, such as
labor for wages, services for payments, and
such.
Sample Groups: Nation, Church Hierarchy,
Professional Association, Corporation,
University classes, Athletic teams, and groups
of coworkers.
THESE TWO GROUPS ARE
DISTINGUISED BY THE DEPHT OF
SOCIAL INTERACTION AMONG
ITS MEMBERS. HOWEVER, THE
PRIMARY AND SECONDARY
GROUPS MAY STILL HAVE GRAY
AREAS BETWEEN THEM. IN SOME
SECONDARY GROUPS, THERE
CAN BE FEW MANIFESTATIONS OF
PRIMARY GROUPS.

AMERICAN SOCIOLOGIST
WILLIAM GRAHAM SUMNER
(1959) FIRST
CONCEPTUALIZED THE IDEA
OF THESE TWO OTHER
GROUPS-THE IN-GROUP AND
THE OUT-GROUP.
 3. IN-GROUP
Belonging to the same group as others
who share the same common bond and
interests who are more likely to
understand each other refers to an in-
group.
Sample Groups: Sports team, Unions
and Sororities
 4. OUT-GROUP
Those who do not belong to the in-group are
part of the out-group, which exist in the
perceptions of the in-group members and takes
on social reality as a result of behavior by
in-group members who use the out group as a
negative point of reference.
5. Reference Groups
A reference group is a collection of people that we
use as a standard of comparison for ourselves
regardless of whether we are part of that group. We
rely on reference groups to understand social
norms, which then shape our values, ideas,
behavior, and appearance. This means that we also
use them to evaluate the relative worth,
desirability, or appropriateness of these things.
 TYPES OF REFERENCE GROUPS
A normative reference group influences your norms, attitudes,
and values through direct interaction.
A comparative reference group is a group of individuals whom
you compare yourself against and may strive to be like.
ONE IMPORTANT FUNCTION OF A
REFERENCE GROUP IS THAT IT SERVES AS A
BASIS FOR SETTING THE STANDARDS OR
NORMS TO BE OBSERVED BY THE PERSON. A
REFERENCE GROUP ALSO MAKES A
COMPARATIVE FUNCTION BECAUSE ONE
INDIVIDUAL ALWAYS HAS AN INCLINATION
TO COMPARE HIMSELF/HERSELF WITH
OTHERS. A PERSON MAY BE INFLUENCED BY
MORE THAN ONE REFERENCE GROUPS.
 6. NETWORK
A network is a collection of people tied together by a
specific pattern of connections. They can be
characterized by the number of people involved, as in
the dyad (by twos) and triad (by threes), but also in
terms of their structures (who is connected to whom)
and functions (what flows across ties). Networks
indeed, are able to do more things and different things
than individuals acting on their own could. Networks
have this effect, regardless of the content of the
connections or persons involved.
THE IDEA OF A NETWORK WAS
PREFIGURED BY EUROPEAN SOCIOLOGIST
EMILE DURKHEIM AND FERDINAD
TONNIES IN THEIR STUDIES ABOUT
GROUPS IN THE LATE 1890’S. HOWEVER, IT
WAS GERMAN SOCIOLOGIST GEORG
SIMMEL WHO INTRODUCED THE VERY
NATURE OF NETWORKS TO THE PUBLIC IN
1908.
Nowadays, the giving of information
and establishing of connections and
various relationships can be done
through social networking sites. In
this manner, it is easier to form
connections, relationships and
linkages.
Example: Family Members, Friends,
Work Colleagues, Classmates
