Socio-Cultural Perspectives


SOCIO-CULTURAL PERSPECTIVES
by Antonio C. Antonio

QUESTION:  What is your understanding of socio-cultural perspectives?

ANSWER:  Socio-Cultural perspective, in my mind, is a theory and an approach to understanding the reasons why humans behave in a particular manner.  It explains the character and personality development of individuals belonging to a social group based on their historical background, their way of life, and the unique and peculiar circumstances in their particular environment.  It also describes the behavioural patterns of a social group and the mental processes of individuals in that group.  The socio-cultural theory tries to understand the reasons how a group and/or individual acquire distinct mental, spiritual, emotional and even physiological characteristics in a given temporal period.  This is how I understand socio-cultural perspectives.

Just my little thoughts…
