Answers:
1. Sociology is the scientific study of social behavior or society, including
its origins, development, networks, how society is organized,
institutions and how we experience life.

both from a cultural and from a biological point of view. It is the study
of what makes us human.

increases the power of social action and capabilities. Since we are
going to be a registered pharmacist soon, we will be dealing with a lot
of people. We need to know how to handle different patients with their
different concerns. It will help us educate our clients and to
understand more of the emotional behavior of our patients. This
subject enables us to adjust ourselves to the environment. Knowledge
of society, social groups, social institutions, associations, their
functions etc. It helps us to lead an effective social life.

4. Applied sociology - makes use of existing research data to solve social

problems and apply sociological concepts in fields such as family
counseling, industrial relations and economic development.
Social organization - this is the study of different institutions, such as
educational institutions, the institution of marriage, social
stratification and even the economy, and how these influence society
and create different groups.
Social psychology - out of all of the different types of sociology, social
psychology focuses on the study of human nature, traits, belief
systems, attitudes and morals. Social psychologists play close
attention to individual groups and what drives people to do certain
things.
Social disorganization and social change - this is the study of deviant
behavior in society and sociologists in this field try to make sense of
why some people are involved with crime, drug addiction and other
problems that plague society.
Population or demographic sociology - this is the study of the
population and changes in the population, and sociologists in this field
review statistics and data to forecast population growth and trace its
root causes.
Sociology theory and methods - this is one of the types of sociology
that is more scientific in nature. Sociologists in this field test various
methods and make attempts to prove different theories.
Human ecology - deals with some of the social problems affecting
society, and tries to identify what types of institutions are prompting
these problems.
Biological Anthropology- is the study of the evolution and ecology of
humans and other primates, grounded in an understanding of
evolutionary history and extending to applied subjects such as
conservation and human development.

Cultural anthropology- is a branch of anthropology focused on the

study of cultural variation among humans
Linguistic anthropology- is the interdisciplinary study of how language
influences social life.
Archaeology- is the study of the ancient and recent human past
through material remains.
5. Culture is the characteristics and cumulative deposit of knowledge of
a particular group of people, defined by everything from experience,
beliefs, values, attitudes, meanings, hierarchies, religion, notions of
time, roles, spatial relations, concepts of the universe, and material
objects and possessions acquired by a group of people in the course of
generations through individual and group striving.
6. Psychodynamic theory is a view that explains personality in terms of
conscious and unconscious forces, such as unconscious desires and
beliefs. In the early 20th century, Sigmund Freud proposed a
psychodynamic theory according to which personality consists of the
id (responsible for instincts and pleasure-seeking), the superego
(which attempts to obey the rules of parents and society), and the ego
(which mediates between them according to the demands of reality).
Psychodynamic theories commonly hold that childhood experiences
shape personality.
Humanistic theory is developed by two psychologistsCarl Rogers and
Abraham Maslow. Humanistic theory emphasizes the importance of
peoples subjective attitudes, feelings and beliefs especially with
regard to self. Rogers theory focuses on the impact of disparity
between a persons perceived real self and his ideal self that is, how I
am and how I would like to be. Maslow focuses on the significance of
self-actualization.
Humanistic theory believes that each person is potential enough to be
creative and responsible, he is free to choose his destiny and every
individual strives to fulfill his need for self-actualization or realizing
his/her fullest potential.
Behaviorism is more concerned with behavior than with thinking,
feeling, or knowing. It focuses on the objective and observable
components of behavior. The behaviorist theories all share some
version of stimulus-response mechanisms for learning. Behaviorism
originated with the work of John B. Watson, an American psychologist.
Watson held the view that psychology should only concern itself with
the study of behavior, and he was not concerned with the mind or with

human consciousness. He considered it paramount that men could be

studied objectively, like rats and apes.
7. Bataan rings a chord in the heart of every Filipino. Its a symbol of
democracy and freedom-a memorial to the gallant Filipino-American
defender of Bataan who fought decisive battles.
Bataan remains basically an avid cultural province in spite of the rapid
industrialization during the last decade. Cattle and carabao fattening,
poultry industry are some of the livelihood programs in the province.
Tinapa is one of the livelihood products of the coastal towns in the
province.
If you really want to experience what the real Bataan culture is like,
the Feast Days or Fiestas are a real insight into the life of these
people. Most of the municipalities observe and maintain the historical
significance of local festivals which depicts the legend cultures and
historic of their towns.
Most of the people living in Bataan are Tagalogs and they are called
Bataenos. The people in this province are friendly and hospitable.
Ilo-ilo is proud of its nationally acclaimed Dinagyang Festival together
with smaller but similarly riveting festivities on the province blends
the pagan and the Christian in a street dance masquerade honoring
Sto. Nino. Almost every town in Ilo-ilo has fiestas and festivals
celebrated annually which are the most important events for Ilonggos.
Ilo-ilo takes pride in being the Food Basket and Rice Granary of the
region owing to its fertile lands and seas that yield plentiful harvest.
Fish and marine products are considered the main source of livelihood
in this province.
Ilonggos are the most discriminating foodies because good food is a
way of life in Ilo-ilo, even the poorest can manage to serve proper food
to their families. They are not like being belittled. There is quite a
good amount of pride running through their veins.
Ilonggos are known for their charms and sweetness that comes from
musical intonation of their dialect, Hiligaynon.

8. Socialization is the process by which children and adults learn from

others. We begin learning from others during the early days of life;
and most people continue their social learning all through life (unless
some mental or physical disability slows or stops the learning
process).

Social interaction is the way people talk and act with each other and
various structures
in society. It may include the interaction a family has together
(eating, sleeping, living
together) or bureaucracies that are formed out of the need to create
order within
the interaction itself.
