    Primary and Secondary: Groups

    Primary groups are small, intimate groups whose members engage in face-to-face interactions over extended periods of time and have deep, profound relationships. Examples include family, close friends, and classmates. Secondary groups are larger and less intimate, with more impersonal relationships between members who interact to achieve objectives. Membership in secondary groups is less intrinsic and more instrumental, with mutual benefit rather than emotion binding members. Examples of secondary groups include colleagues at work and professional relationships between service providers and clients.

    PRIMARY AND

    SECONDARY
    GROUPS
    • Members of society belong to
    social groups that vary not only in
    size but also in the level of depth of
    interaction and interdependence
    among its members.
    • Parents, siblings, first cousins, and
    relatives – closest to individual
    • As they get older, they discover
    that social groups exert more
    profound impact to their lives.
    PRIMARY GROUP___
    • Small, intimate, and less
    specialized group whose members
    engage in face-to-face and
    emotion-based interactions over
    extended period of time.
    • Its interdependence is
    characterized by deep and
    profound relationship with each
    others.
    PRIMARY GROUP___
    • Examples: family, close friends,
    classmates, work-related peers,
    church-mates.
    • In the Philippines, primary group
    affiliation is based on kinship ties.
    • Filipinos recognized bilineal
    kinship which traces lineage from
    both parents.
    SECONDARY GROUPS__
    • Larger, less intimate, and more
    specialized groups. Where
    members engage in impersonal
    and objective-oriented
    relationship for a limited time.
    • Membership of this group is
    less intrinsic and more
    instrumental.
    SECONDARY GROUPS__
    • Examples:
    1. Employees treat their colleagues as
    secondary groups since they need to
    cooperate with one another to
    achieve certain goals in the
    workplace.
    2. Professional relationship between
    lawyers and clients, corporation and
    hundreds of employees, stockholders,
    and shareholders.
    •Mutual benefit , rather
    than emotional affinity,
    becomes the primary
    driving force that compel
    individuals to stay
    together in a secondary
    group.
