Acquiring Culture Notes
Social status- position of person in society- sister, teacher, father etc
Difference between ascribed and achieved social status.
Social institutions – social roles arrange themselves in clusters each one having a strong connection
with related topics- the role of a patient to take the advice of the Dr or nurse (all three are
interlinked.)
Sex- biology that determines whether one is male or female
Gender- the roles and norms that society imposes on us
Forms of social control
Physical violence- the use of the police and military help to social control through the threat of
physical violence, leading to people conforming to the rules
Economic pressure- conform because it is in their economic interest to do so- misbehave at work=
sacked. Refusing to take jobs= may be sanctioned by the benefits agency.
Social acceptance- one of the main things that keeps us in line is the desire to be accepted by others-
if we are tempted to break the rules we may ask ourselves “what will others think of me if I am
caught”? We fear ridicule and gossip.
