Dear All,
I want anybody to just highlight the various methods of socialization in present day society.....!
Please provide your ideas and knowledge coz i could not find them on internet nor in taga's book.....!

According to data gathered on Web, there are 6 basic methods of socialization:
they are :
1:AFFECTIVE Method:
When a child established a secure attachment relationship to an adult, and because of that attachment, becomes able to adopt some aspects of that adult's beliefs, values etc.(son getting habit of daily jogging from dad)

2: OPERANT Method :
The child learns because of the response he receives to his behaviour. It means behavior happens first and then child learns from response received.(boy started smoking, response from parents provide him teaching)

3: OBSERVATIONAL Method:
The child learns through experiences of others and pick up on lessons that they have learned.(So many ppl last week got accidents using mobile while driving,I must not use it while driving)

4: SOCIOCULTURAL Method(Most effective):
The child learns by all of those traditions , symbols, habits, customs and routines that the adult have and that are passed on to the child. Child can also do any activity largely because of everyone else in his surrounding is doing it(peer pressure) (e.g, no reason of RASM-E-HINA known, still ppl celebrating it)

5: APPRENTICESHIP Method :
Simple training method that required the child to go through three categories:
a: Learning situation(material) is structured by an expert.
b: The works in collaboration with the expert.
c: The responsibility is fully transferred to the child.

6: COGNITIVE Method:
The child learns through specific kind of thinking processes which can be like Following directions, Setting standards and Reasoning.
While reasoning can be either of Inductive(reasoning from specific instance to general principle) , Deductive (from general principle to a specific instance) or Transductive(From one specific instance to another). (E.g, you have to achieve this goal at any cost, etc)

Seniors and Sociologists kindly check and provide your valuable feedbacks.
