Role Models

In a popular legend, young George Washington once chopped down a rare and valuable cherry tree for reasons which were never fully explained. When his father asked him what happened to the tree, he said, I cannot tell a lie. I chopped down the cherry tree.

This story has been handed down for many years to show that Washington was honest to a fault, and in this way he has acted as a role model for all of us. Though the concept of a role model was first given a name in the 20th century, people were familiar with the concept well beforehand.

Definition

A role model is a person other people look up to in order to help determine appropriate behaviors. Role models can be either positive or negative. Positive role models offer a range of helpful or useful behaviors. Negative role models, on the other hand, offer examples of harmful or disruptive behaviors.

Virtually anyone can be a role model, but in Western culture, publicly visible figures such as athletes, actors, musicians, and celebrities are the most common examples. Other common role models include members of the clergy, police officers, and parents. Most of these people can be considered either negative or positive role models depending on their behaviors. Figures like drug dealers and gang members can be considered almost exclusively negative because of the behaviors they display.

As the sample list suggests, visibility plays an important part in making someone a role model. The most visible examples, like athletes or actors, involve individuals for whom public visibility is part of the job. Since many people can observe these individuals' behaviors, it is likely people will imitate their behaviors and attitudes. While people of all ages may have role models, it is generally young people who are still developing their own identities who try so hard to emulate their role models.

Developments

As one would suspect, social scientists continue to find the concept of role models fascinating. The term role model comes from sociologist Robert K. Merton, whose work centered on social groups. Merton discovered that rather than modeling individual behaviors, people tend to model sets of behavior. These sets of behavior are demonstrated by people who occupy certain roles in society.

Behavior sets may contain contradictory ideas that do not necessarily work well together. Instances of a role model displaying one set of ideals and then being caught living according to another set of ideals are not uncommon, and all this behavior is part of the same set. This is why people are concerned about how role models live their not-so-private lives. A role model's display of antisocial behavior may be added to the set of behaviors emulated by people who admire them. Merton's work on role models emphasizes highly visible individuals' behaviors and how people who look up to them react to such behaviors.
