Answer to Question 2

Sociologist Charles H. Cooley used the term primary group to describe a small, less

specialized group in which members engage in face-to-face, emotion-based interactions

over an extended period of time. We have primary relationships with other individuals

in our primary groupsthat is, with our significant others, who frequently serve as role

models. In contrast, a secondary group is a larger, more specialized group in which the

members engage in more impersonal, goal-oriented relationships for a limited period of

time.
