What do you mean by social group?
  • 1 answers

  • Society is formed by human interaction. Humans interact, communicate and construct social collectivities. These collectivities are referred to as social groups and exist in every society.
  • We have something in common with others in the same group, we identify with the group, and the group can create a sense of belonging for us. However, the types of groups that exist may differ from society to society.
  • Thus, social group refers to a collection of continuously interacting persons who share common interest, culture, values and norms within a given society.
  • According to Horton and Hunt “Social groups are aggregates or categories of people who have a consciousness of membership and of interaction”.
  • A group is also different from a category. If you are in the same category as a person, you may share similar characteristics—like age, height, or you both wear glasses, but you may not interact or feel the sense of belonging.
