What is the role of peers in the socialization process ?
Answer: B
Peers have a greater influence on socialisation during adolescence than during early childhood.
In early childhood the family is the primary agent of socialisation. As children grow, and especially in adolescence, friends and peer groups become a major source of values, identity, attitudes and behaviour, sometimes rivalling parents.
The other statements are wrong. Peers are not the primary agents for children, since the family is. Saying peers have no major influence ignores the strong peer influence in adolescence. And saying their influence is minor in all stages misses the same shift.
