Relation between Culture and personality in socialization process
A. Culture : tradition and values
Culture in society are divined by
custom, mores, traditions and values
Custom
A custom is a folkways; a
behavior pattern; it is something people do. The word people is important here
because a single act by a single individual does not create a custom. An
eccentrics man may like to wear some unusual headgear in cold weather, but in
so doing people occupying certain statues in a community. In this sense,
customs is like a social role that people perform at a given time and place.
Mores
Some customs, however, are
sacred. People must not treat them lightly. Humorist may poke slight fut. them,
but most people still take them quite seriously. Such obligatory customs are
called mores. Examples of mores for most
communities would be following ; A couple wishing to live together as a husband and wife must go through an
officially recognized marriage ceremony; a father must support his minor
children; an employer must pay wages to those who have eared them; a citizen
must pay taxes. The list could be extended indefinitely and would include some
items that have been embodied in law and other items that are supported by the
informal sanctions of the community. In addition to these practices that must
be observed there are certain things that must not be done last they threaten
the welfare of the group.
Tradition
Customs and mores are
traditional in that they have been handed down from the past by word of mouth
and by example. Tradition such as Christmast, Idul Fitri or Lebaran, Imlek new
year, a pride in having goods schools, the patriotism shown by given community
in time of national need; the also involve an explanation of why these
traditions are important and must be preserved. Therefore , to understand the
richness of community life it is necessary not only observe what people do but
also to listen to their explanations for their behavior.
Values and value orientations
Values are those things or
achievement that the community considers good, and therefore to be sought,
there by implying that the opposites of these are bad, and consequently to be rejected. Value orientation are those
views of the world , often implicitly
held, which define the meaning of human life or the “life situation of
man” and thereby provide the context in which day-to-day problem are solved.
B. Value and norm in socialization process
Behavior is influences by
value. Norm organize human’s behavior that related with value in
community.that’s mean to keep community ‘s value so people making norms. So
that, violation for norm is also value. Norm and value is used for support and
press citizen in community. Basically, human haven’t perfect instinct so for survival
they need another; they need accompany, they need learning process experience
together. In this socialization process need value and norm to form social system. Norm and value take a
role as tool to learn social behavior in society.
C. The Relationship of personality and socialization process
Personality is the sum total of an
individual’s characteristic which make him unique. Viewing personality in term
of interpersonal relations, there is a heavy element of social experiences
about another person behavior become established, we come to see them as
features of his personality.
What
primary concern about the personality of other is the way it effect them in
social interaction. In this sense, the external personality of the individual
provides social stimuli which other individuals evaluate positively or
negatively, as indicated in connection with social interaction.
