Explanation:
Socialization
Socialization is the process by which culture is learned; also called enculturation. During socialization individuals internalize a culture's social controls, along with values and norms about right and wrong. Socialization is a complex process that involves many individuals, groups, and social institutions.
AGENTS OF SOCIALIZATION
There are four main agents of socialization family, school, peer groups (friends and collogues), and mass media.
The family is the single most important agent of socialization because the family is the first and most continuous social world for infants and children. The family provides the child's initial social identity in terms of race, religion, social class, and gender.
The peer group shares with the school the important function of allowing the child to be away from the family where the child learns different models of behavior as well as well as new relationships and values they might not have learned in their family life. Peer groups also allow the opportunity to discuss interests that adults may not share (clothes, music). The peer group also teaches children how to deal with conflicts. The agents of socialization discussed above (family, school, and peer group) are all involved in interactive and personal contact. Mass media on the other had are various impersonal modes of communication intended for large audiences (e.g., radio, television, motion pictures, newspapers). Mass media can have an enormous effect on our attitudes and behavior. The media influence socialization by providing additional and alternative role models as well as social norms and values. It appears that most influential mass medium today is television.
