Process of Socialization“Begins At Birth, Ends with Death”The Human Infant
comes into the world as biological organism. He is gradually moulded into a social being by the groups in society. He learns social ways of acting and feeling by imitating others. The process of moulding into a person is known as “Socialization.”
Definition of SocializationBogardus:- Socialization is the process
of working together, of developing group responsibility.
Ogburn:- socialization is the process by which the individual learns to conform to the norms of the group.
Colley:- Socialization is a social process through which an individual develops his own self by learning the norms and by knowing about his own self from others.

SOCIALIZATION
PRIMARY STAGE1. THE ORAL STAGE (0-1 year) 2. THE ANAL STAGE(1-
4 years)At the oral stage , the infant builds up definite expectations about feeding time and learns to signal for care.

OEDIPAL STAGE(4-Puberty Age)
This stage begins roughly at the fourth year and goes up to puberty. This is the period when child becomes a member of the family as a whole.
SECONDARY SOCIALIZATIONANICIPATORY SOCIALIZATION(Search For Self)In anticipatory socialization the
individual mimic or copy the behavior of his anticipated future role. For example- if one has anticipated his/her future role as a doctor he/she will start picking up doctor’s mannerism.
RE-SOCIALIZATION
Re-socialization is a kind of learning which involves the learning of new ways of thinking, feeling and behaving that are completely different from one’s previous way of life. For example- re-socialization occurs when joins army or is put in a prison.
REVERSE-SOCIALIZATION
In reverse-socialization the younger generation transfers knowledge to the older generation. This occurs mostly in industrial societies where the pace of technological change is very rapid. Ex-A child teaching a grandparent to use a computer.
Sigmund Freud(1856-1939) Explained the process of socialization through
three stages-ID-is a real pleasure seeker and it wants
immediate gratification. It works on pleasure principle.
EGO-it keeps desire realistic and under control. The function of Ego based on reality principle.
SUPER-EGO- it represents society’s norms and values. It leads to the perfection of human action and controls both ID and EGO. It will give strong sense of right and wrong.
