The other agents of socializationinclude mass media, gender and work. The agents of socialization are divided into socialization groups. These socialization groupings are as follows:

    Primary Agents of Socialization

    important primary agent of socialization, family, plays an important role in shaping the life and behavior of an individual within the society.

    Five Main Reasons You Believe

    It can be very helpful and enlightening to know why you believe what you do. You might be surprised to realize some of the shaky ground you have formed your belief

    system on.

    The big 5 are:

    1. Evidence

    2. Tradition3. Authority

    4. Association

    5. Revelation

    Evidence Based Believing

    Evidence shows that one thing causes another. The understanding of causation appeals to the analytical and critical thinking part of your mind.

    Developing your belief system through this method is very rationale and based on the use of logical thinking.

    Adopting Traditional Beliefs

    The traditions perpetuated through families and societies are a major factor in developing your belief system. We are often showered with traditions day in and day out

    when growing up, so they can be extremely easy to adopt, without even questioning. When you believe in a tradition, recognize that they have served some generationwell. Yet it does not mean they are based in truth, nor necessarily have continued usefulness for your life.

    Authority Steers Beliefs

    Many beliefs are adopted from people that have a role of authority in our lives.

    Sometimes these figures of authority also fall in the category of tradition, as you can imagine. For example, your parents play a role of authority in your early life and

    they are regularly passing traditions down to you.

    Beliefs by Association

    Whether you run with the 'in crowd' or the 'nerds', you will be adopting compatible beliefs to your own, as well as reinforcing common beliefs that you hold with your

    group. It is pretty much a case of 'what you see is what you get'. As you are continually faced with particular ways of thinking within the group, you start to adopt and

    reinforce those ideas as the 'right way' to think.

    Revelations Induce Beliefs

    The definition of revelation referred to here is "disclosure of information to man by a divine or supernatural agency.Culture change is a term used in public policy making that emphasises the influence ofcultural capitalon individual and community behaviour. It places stress on the

    social and cultural capital determinants of decision making and the manner in which these interact with other factors like the availability of information or the financial

    incentives facing individuals to drive behaviour.Verse : Bm , G , D , A
