This presentation discusses sociometry, which is a method for measuring social relationships within groups. Sociometry involves measuring the attractions and repulsions between individuals in a group through techniques like sociograms and sociometric matrices. The purpose of sociometry is to measure how related individuals are, understand group interaction and structure, assess group behaviors, and identify characteristics like cohesiveness. It can help improve communication and show how individuals associate with each other within a group toward common goals.
