Group dynamics refers to the behaviors and psychological processes that occur within and between social groups. It is the study of how groups form, change over time, and influence individuals and one another. A group is formed when two or more people become connected in a meaningful social relationship. Several models have been developed to describe the typical stages of group development, including forming, storming, norming, performing, and adjourning. Organizations can also be viewed as systems, with interdependent parts that interact and influence one another. Systems thinking views organizations holistically by examining how conditions interact to produce patterns of behavior, rather than analyzing separate parts.
The document discusses group dynamics and development. It describes the stages a group goes through, including forming, storming, norming, performing, and adjourning. It also discusses factors that influence group cohesion and performance such as group composition, size, norms, and cohesiveness. Highly cohesive groups with clear communication tend to be more productive and effective than groups with low cohesion or ambiguous goals.
Group structure refers to the roles, norms, and networks of relationships that define and organize a group. Norms are unwritten rules that regulate members' behaviors and develop gradually over interactions. Roles are sets of expected behaviors for people in certain positions within a group. Role differentiation occurs as roles become more specialized. Status differentiation is when some members gain more authority, with certain individuals acquiring status through their accepted claims and authority. Communication and attraction networks describe who interacts most frequently within the group, influencing outcomes like performance and satisfaction.
This document defines social groups and discusses their characteristics and types. Social groups consist of individuals who interact and share common goals, values, and identities. Members join groups to fulfill personal needs like companionship, security, status, and leadership opportunities. Groups establish norms of behavior through rituals, uniforms, and language. The main types of groups discussed are primary groups which are small and intimate, secondary groups which are larger and less personal, voluntary groups which are joined willingly, and involuntary groups where membership is forced.
This document discusses the foundations of group behavior. It defines groups as two or more individuals who interact and work together to achieve common objectives. It explores why people join groups and examines key properties of groups including status, size, and cohesiveness. Status is determined by factors like power, ability to contribute, and personal characteristics, and it impacts group interactions and norms. While smaller groups work faster, larger groups are better at problem-solving but risk social loafing. Cohesiveness, or the attraction between group members, is related to group productivity, and managers can encourage it by making the group smaller, emphasizing shared goals, increasing time together, and giving group rather than individual rewards.
This document discusses various theories of group formation, including propinquity, interaction, balance, and exchange theories. It also outlines the five stages of group formation: forming, storming, norming, performing, and adjourning. Additionally, it describes the punctuated-equilibrium model of group development and identifies characteristics of groups such as social interaction, stability, and common interests/goals. The document also discusses aspects of group structure including norms, roles, status, and cohesiveness.
The document provides information on the foundations of group behavior. It defines groups and discusses formal and informal groups. It explains why people form social identities and groups according to social identity theory. It then outlines the five stages of group development: forming, storming, norming, performing, and adjourning. The document also discusses important group properties like roles, norms, status, size, and cohesiveness. It provides details on each of these properties and how they impact group behavior and dynamics. Finally, it discusses concepts like groupthink, diversity, and techniques for group decision making.

Status networks develop through competition and stereotyping. Attraction networks form through sociometric differentiation. Communication networks influence outcomes based on their centralization.
This document discusses group dynamics and different types of groups. It defines a group as two or more individuals connected by social relationships. Groups are classified into primary groups like families and secondary groups like work groups. Formal groups are deliberately designed to achieve goals, while informal groups emerge spontaneously to satisfy social needs. The stages of group development are forming, storming, norming, and adjourning. Group dynamics examines how groups are formed and structured, as well as how they influence members and other groups. Teams differ from groups in that they create synergy from members and use shared leadership rather than a single focused leader.
This document discusses group learning and dynamics. It defines what a group is and characteristics of effective groups. It describes primary and secondary groups, formal and informal groups, and factors that affect group cohesion and morale like leadership, structure, and goals. Maintaining group cohesion requires strong bonds between members through cooperation, communication and a shared identity. Understanding group dynamics helps optimize group performance and the learning experience.
This document provides an overview of social groups and their types. It begins with definitions of social groups from various sociologists such as Bogardus, Ogburn & Nimkoff, and Arnold Green. It then discusses the functions of social groups which include defining boundaries, choosing leaders, making decisions, setting goals, assigning tasks, and controlling member behavior. The document outlines the essential elements for a social group and then describes different ways of classifying social groups based on size, structure and organization, contact and social ties, relations, and identification.
This document defines social groups, societies, and their structures. It states that a social group consists of two or more humans who interact and share an identity. A society is a community that shares customs, laws, and organizations. Societies can be professional, charitable, economic, or based on religion/culture. Social structure includes statuses, roles, groups, associations, and institutions that compose a society. The document also discusses primary and secondary groups, in-groups/out-groups, reference groups, and the dynamics within and between social groups. It describes the stages of social transformation as forming, storming, norming, performing, and transformation over time.
This document defines small group communication and its primary features. A small group has 3-15 members who communicate freely and have common goals and purposes. Key characteristics include interdependence between members, as the actions of one affect the whole group, and a common task that is the purpose of the group. Small groups also have norms and an identity that distinguishes members from non-members. There are different types of small groups including primary, social, self-help, learning, service, public, and work groups.
This document discusses groups and teams from several perspectives. It defines a group as two or more people interacting to achieve common goals, and identifies reasons why people form groups, including security, status, self-esteem, and goal achievement. It also defines a team as a group that interacts, is mutually accountable, and sees itself as a unit within an organization. The document compares groups and teams, noting that teams typically outperform individuals. It discusses factors that influence group and team effectiveness, such as size, cohesiveness, decision-making processes, and leadership.

This document provides an overview of groups and formal organizations from a sociological perspective. It defines and distinguishes between primary and secondary groups, and discusses other types of groups like reference groups, in-groups, and out-groups. It also examines social networks and five basic types of social interaction: cooperation, conflict, social exchange, coercion, and conformity. Finally, it defines formal organizations and bureaucracies, and notes how informal groups can form within formal organizations.
Group dynamics is the scientific study of groups and the processes within them. It is an interdisciplinary field that draws from psychology, sociology, political science, and other areas. Some key topics studied include group formation, structure, influence, performance, conflict, and leadership. Researchers make assumptions such as groups being more than the sum of their parts, and groups shaping society. Groups have common characteristics like interaction, interdependence, goals, cohesion, and structure. The level of analysis can be individual, group, or multilevel.
Social Group and Organization by rsa BSHTE RUBEN ANDO
Group is defined as a collection of people who interact based on shared expectations of one another's behavior. There are two main types of groups - primary groups characterized by close personal ties, like families, and secondary groups with fewer emotional ties like workplaces. Groups can also be defined as in-groups that one identifies with or out-groups that are viewed more neutrally or negatively. Reference groups provide norms and allow for social comparison. The main social institutions that meet a society's basic needs are family, education, religion, economy, and politics.
The document discusses small group communication and formation. It describes that a group is a collection of people with a common purpose or goal who communicate with each other. There are different types of groups such as formal, advisory, creative, and support groups. The document also outlines several models of group development stages including forming, storming, norming, performing, and adjourning. Additional stages discussed are orientation, conflict, emergence, and reinforcement. Key features of groups mentioned are togetherness, expectations about performance, and developing group norms and culture.
This document discusses social groups and interactions. It defines primary and secondary groups, in-groups and out-groups, and reference groups. It provides examples of different types of social groups and compares primary and secondary groups.

Group dynamics is concerned with the interactions between group members and the forces that influence their behavior. It was founded to study group decision making, productivity, interaction, cohesion, and communication. A group is defined as two or more people with common goals who interact. People join groups for security, status, self-esteem, power, and goal achievement. Key aspects of group structure include norms, roles, status, and cohesion, which influence members' behaviors and relationships within the group. Group dynamics is essential to study as it provides insight into how groups develop, the effect on members, and how to organize and lead groups effectively.
Social groups and social organization BSHRM4A @ STI Balagtasnem
This document discusses social groups and organizations. It defines social groups as families, friends circles, clubs, religious congregations and more. Groups are described as either formal or informal based on their structure and nature of interaction. Key characteristics of groups include regular interaction and communication among members. The document goes on to classify groups into primary and secondary groups, comparing their characteristics such as size, relationship intimacy, decision-making processes and more. It provides examples like families for primary groups and work colleagues for secondary groups. Influential sociologists who studied groups, such as Joseph Fichter, Charles Horton Cooley and William Graham Sumner, are also cited. Finally, the importance of groups for providing solidarity and cohesion is
This document provides an overview of operations management. It discusses what operations management is, why it is important, and what operations managers do. Specifically, it notes that operations management involves transforming inputs into outputs through production of goods and services. It also explains that operations is one of the three major functions of any organization, along with marketing and finance. Finally, it outlines some of the key activities of operations managers, which include improving productivity, quality, and the performance of the workplace.
This document provides an overview of organizational psychology and its history. It discusses how organizational psychology applies principles of psychology to the workplace to increase employee productivity and well-being. Some key pioneers discussed include Frederick Taylor who advocated scientific analysis of jobs and matching employees to tasks. The Hawthorne studies found that social factors like being observed influenced employee productivity more than physical changes like lighting levels. This challenged views of scientific management and emphasized the importance of human relationships in the workplace.

This document discusses different theories and styles of leadership. It defines leadership as the ability to influence a group toward achieving goals. Trait theories focus on personal qualities that make an effective leader, while behavioral theories examine what leaders do. Contingency theories emphasize that leadership effectiveness depends on matching the leader's style to the situation. Fiedler's contingency model identifies leadership styles as task-oriented or relationship-oriented and matches them to levels of situational control. The document also outlines different leadership styles like autocratic, bureaucratic, democratic, and laissez-faire. It briefly discusses transformational, transactional, change, and challenge leadership.

This article reviews the literature on women who perpetrate intimate partner violence and recommendations for their treatment. It discusses the debate around research finding that domestic violence is not exclusively perpetrated by men. Studies have found that rates of violence initiated by women in relationships are equivalent to or exceed rates of male-initiated violence. However, this contradicts early feminist theories and has led to attempts to suppress or reinterpret evidence of female-initiated violence. The article argues for recognizing female perpetrators as a growing part of the criminal justice system and identifies similarities and differences between male and female domestic violence offenders to inform improved treatment approaches for women.
This document discusses strategy formulation and key concepts related to developing a strategic plan. It explains that a company's mission statement expresses its long-term purpose, and that top managers formulate strategies to provide guidance. Strategies define the product lines, markets, resources, and competitive actions. Policies then guide decisions and actions. Developing an effective strategy requires evaluating internal strengths and weaknesses as well as external economic, political, social, technological, and market conditions. The operations function plays an important role in strategy by determining how the company will achieve competitive advantages through quality, cost, dependability, and flexibility.

There are several key factors that contribute to effective groups and teams. Groups are classified based on how they are formed (planned or emergent) and their purpose (primary, secondary, task-oriented). Successful teams and groups have clearly defined goals, the right composition and skills among members, established norms, and foundations like trust, leadership, and decision-making. The stages of group development include forming, storming, norming, performing, and adjourning. Group dynamics and performance are influenced by characteristics such as size, composition, cohesiveness, and norms.
There are several types of social groups that form based on different criteria. Primary groups are small and intimate, consisting of strong social ties like family. Secondary groups are larger and more impersonal, based on common goals and interests like coworkers or clubs. In-groups are those with which people identify as members, while reference groups influence behaviors even if not a member. For groups to function effectively, leadership should be democratic and problem-solving cooperative rather than competitive. Social conformity, facilitation, and good leadership can help groups grow through shared norms and goals.
3rd Lect. Introduction to Rural sociology )101)Marina Hanna
The document discusses various types of groups in society, including:
1. Primary groups which are small, intimate, and have strong personal relationships between members. Secondary groups are larger and more impersonal.
2. Formal groups which are deliberately formed to achieve objectives, while informal groups are small and based on friendship.
3. Reference groups that individuals use to evaluate themselves even if they are not members. Voluntary associations are also formal groups with defined structures.
Groups consist of two or more people who interact together according to shared rules and goals. There are different types of groups including primary groups like families that involve close interaction, and secondary groups like workplaces that are less intimate but goal-oriented. People join groups for reasons like task accomplishment through group synergy, interpersonal support, and fulfilling social needs. Communicating effectively in groups can be challenging as it requires constructive participation, leadership, managing conflicts productively, and addressing issues like cohesion, group size, power structures, and norms. While groups have strengths like greater resources and thoroughness, they also have limitations such as time requirements and potential for conformity pressures.
Groupwork Chapter Two for Working with GroupsJunelCalvadores
This document discusses key concepts in social work practice with groups. It defines social group work as a method that helps individuals enhance their social functioning through purposeful group experiences. The document outlines various social work roles in working with groups including enabler, broker, and facilitator. It also describes techniques used in groups such as addressing individuals by name and arranging chairs in a circle. Finally, it discusses classifications of groups including primary and secondary groups as well as in-groups and out-groups.
The document discusses different types of groups and effective group communication. It defines a group as two or more individuals connected by social relationships. It describes primary groups as small, intimate groups like families whereas secondary groups are larger and less personal like membership organizations. Planned groups are intentionally formed for a purpose while emergent groups develop spontaneously. Effective group communication requires commitment from members, open communication through listening and discussion, and organized structure through setting ground rules.
This document discusses various topics related to social groups and organizations, including:
1. The key characteristics of social groups including interaction, sense of belonging, and interdependence. It also discusses primary and secondary groups.
2. The characteristics and effects of bureaucracy, noting that while some criticize "red tape", bureaucracy is necessary for large organizations to operate smoothly.
3. The types of formal organizations including normative, coercive, and utilitarian, and examples of each.
4. Additional topics covered include group size and its effects on interactions, ingroups and outgroups, reference groups, leadership styles, and alternatives to traditional bureaucratic models of organization.
The document defines groups and group dynamics, discussing types of groups, roles within groups, stages of group development, and processes like communication, problem solving, and leadership. It notes that a group requires a minimum of two people, common goals, interdependence, and self-identification as members. Group dynamics examines how groups form and develop over multiple stages, focusing on elements like roles, communication, decision-making, influence, and relationships between task completion and social bonds.

It provides examples and characteristics of each type of social group.
Foundations of individual decision making, groups, teamsPriyanshu Gandhi
This document discusses organizational behavior topics such as groups, group dynamics, roles, norms, status, cohesiveness, diversity, decision making, teams, and values. It defines groups and their types, and covers concepts like ingroups/outgroups, social identity threat, roles, norms, status, group size effects, cohesiveness, diversity, groupthink, and decision making techniques. Team types and characteristics of effective teams are contrasted. Biases in decision making are identified and ways to reduce biases are explained. Hofstede's and GLOBE's frameworks for assessing cultural values are overviewed.
Group dynamics refers to how groups form and function. Key aspects include group structure, roles, and development stages. Groups go through forming, storming, norming, performing, and adjourning stages. Group structure is shaped by size, roles, norms, and cohesiveness. Roles include work roles like initiator and informer, and maintenance roles like harmonizer. Blocking roles like dominator disrupt groups. Understanding group dynamics helps organizations utilize groups effectively.
A group is defined as two or more people interacting for a common purpose, with identifiable membership and social structure. Groups have norms, roles, and reciprocity among members. They can be primary groups with close emotional bonds or secondary groups focused on goals. Organizations are formal secondary groups established to achieve objectives. Bureaucracies are large, rule-based organizations necessary for efficient operation but also criticized for "red tape." Leadership styles vary from authoritarian to democratic to laissez-faire depending on the group's needs. Normative, coercive, and utilitarian organizations recruit members differently to fulfill their purposes.
Group dynamics is the study of how groups work and the behaviors of individuals within groups. Tuckman's model outlines 5 stages of group development: forming, storming, norming, performing, and adjourning. Groups can be either formal, established by an organization, or informal, formed naturally based on shared interests. Group structure refers to the relationships within a group and can be described by factors like size, roles, norms, and cohesiveness.
This document provides an overview of group dynamics. It defines group dynamics as the study of forces operating within a group and changes that take place within groups. It discusses different types of groups, reasons for group formation, stages of group formation, principles and features of group dynamics. The key points are that group dynamics examines interaction and relationships between group members, how groups develop over time, and how groups influence individual members and the organization.

The document discusses groups and group dynamics. Some key points:
- A group is defined as two or more individuals interacting and interdependent who have come together to achieve objectives. Characteristics include social interaction, stability, and common interests/goals.
- There are formal groups designated by an organization's structure and informal groups that form in response to social needs. Formal groups have assigned roles and tasks while informal groups satisfy psychological needs.
- Groups go through stages of forming, storming, norming, performing, and adjourning as they develop over time. Conflict occurs in the storming stage while cohesion increases in the norming stage and the group is able to perform its tasks.

This document provides an overview of group dynamics and the scientific study of groups. It discusses key topics in the field including group formation, cohesion, influence, leadership, performance, conflict, and applications. The document outlines various types of groups and levels of analysis (micro, meso, macro). It also presents assumptions that guide research on groups, such as groups being real entities that shape society and can be studied scientifically. Major topics covered include inclusion, norms, power, decision-making, teams, intergroup relations, and how groups are impacted by their context and can be agents of change. The objectives are for learners to understand groups, paradigms in the field, topics studied, and participate in group activities.
Groups have a long history in counseling and are an effective way to help individuals. There are several types of groups including psychoeducational, counseling, psychotherapy, and task groups. Groups provide benefits like universality and developing social skills. They also have some drawbacks like not addressing problems in depth. Theoretical approaches help structure groups, and groups typically progress through forming, storming, norming, and mourning stages. New theories continue to influence group work methods.
LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UPRAHUL
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

Group dynamics
1. 1
THE NATURE OF GROUP
DYNAMICS
The scientific study of groups; also the actions, processes, and changes
that occur in social groups.
2. Work groups or teams
Work groups, or teams, are increasingly common in
organizations. Formal groups are those designated as
work groups by the organization.
The members of these groups usually have shared
task objectives. Examples of these formal groups
include health care teams, management groups,
mining crews and research and development project
groups.
Informal work groups are not defined by the
organization as functional units, but nevertheless
have an impact on organizational behavior. Examples
include friendship and pressure groups.
3. Types of group and what makes
them effective
In some organizations, groups as a whole may be
hired, fired, trained, rewarded and promoted.This
trend has developed as organizations have grown
and become increasingly complex, demanding that
shared experiences and complementary skills are
constantly utilized in decision-making processes.
Group is defined as two or more individuals who are
connected to one another by social relationships.
4. Types of group and what makes
them effective
De Muse and Futrrel distinguish four main types of
formal work teams
1. Advice / involvement team i.e. committees,
boars, advisory councils
2. production/ service group i.e. assembly teams
manufacturing crews
3. Project development groups i.e. research group,
task force, planning team
4. Action/ negotiation group i.e. entertainment
group, negotiation team, surgery team cockpit
crew
6. Types of group and what makes
them effective
A group can range in size from two members to
thousands of members.Very small collectives, such as
dyads (two members) and triads (three members) are
groups, but so are very large collections of people,
such as mobs, crowds, and congregations
WHO ARE CONNECTEDTO ONE ANOTHER Like a
series of interconnected computers, the individuals in
any given group are networked:They are connected one
to another.
These connections, or ties, may be strong emotional
bonds, like the links between the members of a family
or a clique of close friends.The links may also be
relatively weak ones that are easily broken with the
passage of time or the occurrence of relationship-
damaging events. Even weak links, however, can
create robust outcomes across an entire group of
networked individuals.
7. Types of Groups
Types of groups:
Primary
Secondary
Planned (concocted and founded)
Emergent (circumstantial and self-organizing)
8. Congregations, work
groups, unions,
professional associations
Larger, less intimate, more
goal-focused groups typical
of more complex societies
Secondary
groups
Families, close friends,
tight-knit peer groups,
gangs, elite military
squads
Small, long-term groups
characterized by face-to-face
interaction & high levels of
cohesiveness, solidarity, &
member identification
Primary groups
ExamplesCharacteristicsType of
Group
(Cooley, 1909)
Types of Groups
9. Study groups, friendship
cliques in a workplace,
regular patrons at a bar
Emerge when interacting individuals
gradually align their activities in a
cooperative system of
interdependence.
Self-organizing
Waiting lines (queues),
crowds, mobs, audiences,
bystanders
Emergent, unplanned groups arising
when external, situational forces set
the stage for people to join together,
often only temporarily, in a unified
group
Circumstantial
Groups that form spontaneously as individuals find themselves
repeatedly interacting with the same subset of individuals over
time and settings
Emergent groups
Study groups, small
businesses, clubs,
associations
Planned by one or more individuals
who remain within the group
Founded
Production lines, military
units, task forces, crews,
professional sports teams
Planned by individuals or authorities
outside the group.
Concocted
Deliberately formed by the members themselves or by an external
authority, usually for some specific purpose or purposes
Planned groups
ExamplesCharacteristicsType of Group
10. Women, Asian Americans,
physicians, U.S. citizens,
New Yorkers
Aggregations of individuals similar to
one another in terms of gender, ethnicity,
religion, or nationality.
Social
categories
Crowds, audiences, clusters
of bystanders
Aggregations of individuals that form
spontaneously, last for brief periods, and
have very permeable boundaries
Weak
associations
Teams, neighborhood
associations
Work groups in employment settings and
goal-focused groups in a variety of non-
employment situations
Task groups
Families, close friends,
street gangs
Small groups of moderate duration &
permeability characterized by large
levels of interaction amongst members,
who value membership in the group
Intimacy
groups
ExamplesCharacteristicsType of
Group
11. GOALS
GOALS Groups usually exist for a reason. A team strives to
outperform other teams in competitions. A study group
wants to raise the grades of all of the students
who are members. A jury must make decisions about guilt
or innocence.
The members of a congregation seek religious and spiritual
enlightenment. In each case, the members of the group are
united in their pursuit of common goals. In groups, people
solve problems, create products, create standards,
communicate knowledge, have fun, perform arts, create
institutions, and even ensure their safety from attacks by
other groups. Put simply, groups make it easier to attain
our goals. For this reason, much of the world’s work is done
by groups rather than by individuals.
12. Group Development
1. Forming - orientation, guidance (dependence)
2. Storming - conflict, roles and responsibilities, rules and
procedures, individual recognition (counter dependence)
3. Norming - issue resolution, develop social agreements,
cohesion, establish group norms (interdependence)
4. Performing - mutual assistance, creativity, understanding
goals and roles (independence)
5. Adjourning / Transforming- closure, symbolism,
ceremonies, and emotional support
Editor's Notes
PLANNED AND EMERGENT GROUPS
planned groups, which are deliberately formed by their members or by an external authority for some purpose, Planned groups tend to be organized, task focused, and formal. Such groups generally define their membership criteria clearly and so atall times know who is and who is not in the group. military units, musical groups, research teams
emergent groups, which come into existence spontaneously when individuals join together in the same physical location or form gradually over time as individuals find themselves repeatedly interacting with the same subset of individuals. People found planned groups, but they often find emergent groups. such as audiences at events, bystanders at a crime scene, crowds, customers at a club, gangs
