Anthropology

Social group behavior

This includes studies of the behavior of social groups in general. It includes such things as the effect of individuals on groups and the effect of groups on individuals, on group norms and mores. This also includes collective behavior, such as the behavior of crowds and mobs. The process of socialization may be included here.

Group types

This includes classification of groups, and studies of their formation or dissolution. Primary or strong groups, secondary groups, and weak groups can be identified.

Social control

This includes studies of social norms (how people do behave), mores (ought society perceives they ought to behave), and control (how they are influenced to behave).

Social interaction

Social interactions include interactions between different classes of people, such as adults and children, males and female, strangers and friends, and so forth. Cooperation and conflict, helping and hurting, and love, indifference, and hatred are some of the chief areas of interest. Persuasion and domination are also included in this category. This also includes roles, which are patterns of behavior and interaction.

Social presentation

Social perception has to do with how people present and perceive other people and themselves. It includes emotional, cognitive, and volitional components, and may include status.
