REF: Cognitive Domain: Comprehension Answer Location: Types of Groups Difficulty Level: Medium E SSAY 1. Discuss the differences and similarities that compare theories on the development of the self from Charles Horton Cooley and George Herbert Mead. Be sure to discuss the “looking-glass self,” the “I” and the “me,” and the “generalized other” in your answer. Ans: Varies, but should include definitions of terms: Cooley’s looking-glass self : the idea that we develop self-image from how we think others see and respond to us. Parental interactions are earliest and so have the most important effects on formation of self-image. Mead’s theory of the development of the self is that we have internal conversations with ourselves inside our minds using words. That internal conversation is related to our interactions in the world. The self develops over time, and we learn to treat the self as an object, meaning that we can step back and look at ourselves as others do. This goes through stages. First the play stage , which is being able to imagine what a specific other, such as mommy and daddy, thinks and take that into consideration. This expands to the game stage, when we can include other specific people with whom we have a relationship. Finally, we mature during game stage to a concept of the “ generalized other ,” which is being able to look at oneself not just from specific people, but from an abstracted other person or group that is nonspecific. Cooley and Mead share a concern with the micro level (individual mind, self), and both prioritize the social/interaction in the formation of self. Mead’s theory of self differs from Cooley in that it sees the self as made up of two parts: the “I” and the “me.” The “I” is our immediate response, and is unconscious and somewhat unpredictable. The “me” is the part that internalizes the way behavior is seen by others and analyzes this through societal responsibilities. KEY: Learning Objective: 5.1: Describe the development of the self.

Explain the components of dramaturgy according to Erving Goffman. Discuss front and back stage and impression management. Use an example of classroom behavior to elaborate on each of these concepts. Ans: Answer should include information about dramaturgy , which views an individual’s social life as a series of dramatic performances similar to performing on a stage. Using a classroom as an example, the classroom would be seen as a site for the performance of being in the roles of “teacher” and “student.” Continuing with the stage metaphor, human behavior has a “ front stage ” and a “ back stage .” The front stage is where the performance takes place. It is idealized and designed to define the situation for those who are observing it. A good student, for instance, will behave attentively and try to look like a thoughtful student, idealizing the role of what they think a good student looks like. A teacher may also work to appear within their role by the way they speak, the words they use, and the authority and attention they exercise while facilitating discussion in the classroom. The back stage is where people are not performing but may be able to express themselves in ways that they suppress when in “front-stage” mode. After class, for instance, students may act rowdy or talk about how they were not really paying attention but were just hungover during class. If the instructor were to see the back- stage behavior that shows a lack of sincerity of the student’s in-class behavior, it may become difficult to convince the professor of their genuineness in the class. Likewise, if an instructor is seen behaving in ways that did not match their “teaching” personality, such as wearing risqué clothing, being drunk, or cussing, and a student witnessed this, it might change the student’s impression. It is important that there is not just one “front” stage and one “back” stage. When a student is out of class, he or she may be “back stage” as a student but “front stage” as a fraternity member, for instance. Impression management is the attempt to manage what others see and how they see you by controlling the image you project to them and whether they see front- or back-stage behavior. For instance, a teacher might engage in impression management by spending social time in locations where students are not likely to frequent.

Discuss at least three changes in socialization related to new media technologies. Explain at least two sources of socialization. How do new social media affect socialization through these sources? Ans: Answer varies. The selected agents of socialization could be parents (primary socialization), peers, schools, gender socialization, marketing, or media. Some points that could be made: Parents are still primary socializers. Children might socialize parents to new media, an example of reverse socialization . Media can perpetuate and enforce gender socialization. Media socialization has moved from just TV to include the Internet, which is more active. Children are more exposed to media, almost 11 hours a day. Social media sites such as Facebook and Snapchat lead to stronger influences from peer socialization. There is less expectation of fitting one model for family type because children are exposed to more family diversity through media. Media socialization also allows more direct marketing to children and leads to more socialization into consumption—encouraging more consumption and placing more meaning on consumption. Socialization through media can also reinforce lessons about race, class, and gender by linking consumer choices to one’s race, class, or gender identity, and reinforcing social inequalities through consumption. KEY: Learning Objective: 5.3: Explain the significance of socialization in childhood and adulthood. REF: Cognitive Domain: Application Answer Location: Socialization Difficulty Level: Medium 4. Give an example of a status and its associated role(s). Identify the types of status. Correctly provide a scenario that illustrates either (a) role conflict or (b) role overload. Ans: Answer varies but should explain that a status is the position in a social system that a person occupies, such as teacher or mother, and role is what society expects of a person who occupies that status. An example of a status and its roles should be given, along with identifying the status as ascribed (one that is not chosen), achieved (one that

A role conflict example is one in which two roles have conflicting expectations (work wants one thing, parenting wants something contradictory to work role). A role overload is when a person is given more expectations than he or she can possibly complete (students are given twice as many classes as they can complete). KEY: Learning Objective: 5.3: Explain the significance of socialization in childhood and adulthood. REF: Cognitive Domain: Analysis Answer Location: Status and Role Difficulty Level: Medium 5. Explain the concept of “the strength of weak ties.” How are weak ties strong? Be sure to define strong ties, weak ties, primary groups, and secondary groups, and use an example that illustrates these groups and ties. Ans: Answers vary but should include an explanation of Mark Granovetter’s social network theory about the “strength of weak ties.” Strong ties are the ties we have to primary groups: The tie is strong because we have important close relationships. Primary groups are people who are in our closest circles such as family and close friends. Weak ties are people we are acquaintances with, and secondary groups are the acquaintances we know, usually through a limited number of dimensions in our lives, such as sports team members, coworkers, or members of the church. Weak ties are strong because we can network with a much larger group and possibly accomplish more. Granovetter demonstrated that those who have weak ties can move between groups and gain power from being tied to more people. For instance, about half of U.S. workers got jobs through referrals, which relies on being able to access many weak ties through a network. Answers may mention that online networks such as Facebook can access the strength of weak ties, but the ties may be too weak to be effective in the same way as pre-Internet weak ties for accomplishing goals.
