Answer these questions as you think they may be informed by a sociological theory/theorist of your choosing. What are some of the social contexts (relationships, institutions, etc.) in which primary and secondary socialization take place? Who are the significant others - i.e., people whose guidance, example, or judgment matters - in these contexts?
