Answer to Question 1

Answer: Sociologists are interested in the study of larger social units such as groups, organizations, and societies. They might be interested in the role of marriage in American families or the number of divorces in cultures with arranged marriages. Social psychologists could examine these topics by focusing on the individuals in those situations. For example, how do husbands communicate happiness in marriages in America or how do individuals think about one another in arranged marriages?
