Face to face association is visible in:

Social groups are classified based on the nature of relationships among their members. Some groups involve close, personal interactions, while others are more formal and impersonal.

Key Points

•  Face-to-face association is visible in a Primary Group because these groups are small, intimate, and characterized by direct, personal relationships.
• Examples include family, close friends, and peer groups, where members interact regularly and develop emotional bonds.
• Sociologist Charles Horton Cooley introduced the concept of primary groups, emphasizing their role in shaping individual personalities and social behavior.

Hint

• Secondary Group consists of larger, impersonal, and goal-oriented relationships (e.g., workplaces, schools).
• Tertiary Group is not a commonly used sociological term for social groups.
• Transitory Group refers to temporary or short-lived associations with minimal personal interaction.
