Which of the following play an important role in a child's socialization ?
(i) Media
(ii) School
(iii) Family
(iv) Neighbourhood
Answer: D
All four play an important role, so the answer is (i), (ii), (iii), (iv).
Socialisation is the process by which a child learns the values, norms, language and behaviour of the society. The family is the primary agent, where the earliest and deepest learning takes place. The school, the neighbourhood with its peers and community, and the media are all secondary agents that shape attitudes, aspirations and behaviour, and media influence grows as children get older.
Each of the other options leaves out at least one of these agents, so none is complete.
