A social group consists of individuals who interact and recognize themselves as a distinct unit, while a social aggregate consists of people in the same place without interaction. Social structure is the organized set of institutions and relationships that form society, with primary groups being intimate and secondary groups being larger and less personal. People categorize themselves into in-groups, which foster identity, and out-groups, which can create competitiveness or hostility, while reference groups shape relationships between social actors and institutions.

1. SOCIAL ORGANIZATION

2. SOCIAL GROUP
A social group is consisting of two or more people
who interact with one another and who recognize
themselves as a distinct social unit. This similarity
and the interaction cause them to identify with one
another. Identification and attachment, in turn,
stimulate more frequent and intense interaction.

3. SOCIAL AGGREGATE
A social aggregate is a collection of people who
are in the same place at the same time, but who
otherwise do not necessarily have anything in
common, and who may not interact with each
other.

4. FACTORS THAT INFLUENCE
GROUPS
- Motivational base shared by individual
-Size of group
- Type of group goal
-Kind of group cohesion

5. A social category is a collection of people
that have certain characteristics or traits in
common, but they tend not to interact with
each other on a regular basis. For example,
teenagers is a social category because they
are all within a particular age range and
share certain characteristics.
SOCIAL CATEGORY

6. is a process of bringing order and
significance into human social life. It has
its roots in social interaction.
SOCIAL ORGANIZATION

7. Social structure is the organized set of
social institutions and patterns of
institutionalized relationships that
together compose society. Social
structure is both a product of social
interaction, and directly determines it.
SOCIAL STRUCTURE

8. Primary Group- is a small, intimate and
less specialized group whose members
engage in face-to- face and emotion
based interactions over extended period
of time. (Family, close friends, work-
related peers, class mates and church
groups).
PRIMARY GROUP

9. Secondary Groups are larger. Less intimate and
more specialized groups where members
engage in an impersonal and objective-
oriented relationship for a limited time
(Example: employees treat their colleagues as
secondary groups since they know that they
need to cooperate with one another to achieve
a certain goal.)
SECONDARY GROUPS

10. A self-categorization theory - it proposes that
people's appreciation of their group
membership is influenced by their perception
towards people who are not members of their
group.with which one feels a sense of identity.
IN- GROUPS AND OUT-
GROUPS

11. An in-group is a group to which one
belongs and with which one feels a sense
of identity. An out-group is a group to
which one does not belong and to which
he or she may feel a sense of
competitiveness or hostility.

12. A group to which an individual compares
himself or herself. Such group strongly
influence an individual's behavior and social
attitude. It is considered a source of role
models since the individual uses it as a
standard for self-assessment.
REFERENCE GROUP

13. Refers to the structure of relationships
between social actors or groups. These are
interconnections, ties, linkages between
people, their groups, and the larger social
institutions to which they all belong to. Modern
societies feature more expansive, diverse and
overlapping social networks than primitive
ones
