Explain how significant social agents are in one’s self-development. Cite your
points clearly.

An individual, group, or institution that contributes to people's socialization is referred to as an agent of

socialization. Parents, peers, schools, religious groups, the media, and other socialization agents impact
an individual's self-concept, values, and conduct. They are used to teach and model appropriate
behavior, as well as to pass on values, beliefs, and traditions.

Family is the first and most essential socializing agent. The most intensive socialization and the most
lasting socialization occurs throughout childhood when newborns and children spend most of their time
with their parents and families.

Socialization is the process of teaching people how to function as productive members of society. It
outlines how people learn to understand and accept societal norms and expectations, as well as how
they become conscious of societal ideals. Socialization is not the same as socializing (interacting with
people such as family, friends, and coworkers); it is a sociological process that takes place because of
socializing.
