General Sociology
Chapter Exam Questions
Course Introduction
General Sociology introduces students to the systematic study of human society, social behavior, and social institutions. This course explores fundamental concepts and theories that explain how individuals interact within groups, the structure of societies, and the social processes that shape culture, norms, and values. Topics include socialization, social stratification, race and ethnicity, gender, family, deviance, and the impact of social change. Through analysis and discussion, students will gain a deeper understanding of how society influences individuals and how individuals, in turn, contribute to the functioning and evolution of society.
