It is the process that introduces people to social norms
and customs. This process helps individuals function well
in society, and, in turn, helps society run smoothly. Family
members, teachers, religious leaders, and peers all play
roles in a person’s socialization.
It is how we learn the norms and beliefs of our society.
From our earliest family and play experiences, we are
made aware of societal values and expectations.
It happens almost each and every moment of our life
whether we are at home, in a park interacting with
neighbors or in school setting.
Enculturation

culture we live in. Through enculturation, we learn what
behaviors, values, language, and morals are acceptable in
our society. We learn by observing other members of our
society, including our parents, friends, teachers, and
mentors.
Acculturation
It is the process by which people learn the requirements of
their surrounding culture and acquire the values and
behaviors appropriate or necessary in that culture.
