ENCULTURATION
AND
SOCIALIZATION
SOCIALIZATION
It refers to a lifelong social experience
by which people develop their human
potential and learn culture.
ENCULTURATION
The process by which people learn the
requirements of their surrounding culture and
acquire the values and behaviors appropriate
or necessary in that culture
Directions:
In a piece of paper, create a hand
pattern. Write your name on the paper
and later, let each of your classmates list
things about you based on the
statements below. As the teacher says
go, the one holding the paper must
write something about the owner of the
paper. Then if the teacher says pass, the
one holding the paper must pass it to
the one next to him/her.
Questions are:
1.Who are you as a person?
2.Write one trait about you.
3.What is their strength?
4.What do you think is their weakness?
5.Something that they like.
6.What symbol can you associate with
this person.
Starting at an early age, we begin to observe and
internalize many Filipino values, norms, and
traditions. We learned most aspects of our
culture through primary socialization with our
family and peers.
We learned most aspects of our culture through

primary socialization with our family and peers.
As we grow older, formal institutions
such as schools, religions, organizations,
and governments also contribute to our
awareness of cultural norms, values,
roles, and statuses, thereby forming our
sense of self.
Social interaction is important in
building our individual identities and
characters.
This fact holds true even though there is
still no consensus on which aspects of
one’s identity are innate and which ones
are results of social interaction.
IDENTITY FORMATION
Johari’s Window
The Johari window is a simple test used to determine and describe an
individual’s characteristics. It shows four different types of
characteristics.
The upper left box indicates qualities you and others are aware of; the box
beside it shows qualities that you are not aware of but are known to
others.
The lower left box, on the other hand, is designated for qualities that you
know about yourself, but others do not know about you; and lastly, the
lower right box specifies qualities that neither you nor other people know
about you.
The Open Self is characterized as a state where an individual is open and
upfront about sharing information about themselves and what others also
know about.
The Blind Self is characterized as a state where it is unknown to the individual,

but it is known to others.
The Hidden Self is characterized as a state where it is known to the individual,

but it is unknown to others. Often times, it happens when the individual
prefers not to disclose their own feelings, thoughts or ideas towards others.
The Unknown Self is characterized as a mysterious state of an individual

neither known to themselves, nor others know about it. Often times, it happens
when feelings, thoughts or ideas could become difficult for the individual as
well as others to understand it.
Theories of Identity Formation
➢ Sigmund Freud’s Psychodynamic Theory – According to
him, human beings have a basic need to express their sexual
tensions and aggression, and because these are typically not
acceptable mechanisms in society, human beings suffer from
anxiety that pave way for the development of neuroticism
and other psychological fixations.
➢ Jean Piaget’s Theory of Cognitive Development -
According to Jean Piaget, human identity development is
influenced greatly by cognitive processes, that is, the
mechanisms of the brain.
➢Lawrence Kohlberg’s Theory of Moral Development
- Lawrence Kohlberg postulated that human beings also
develop moral identities as influenced by their
environmental and interpersonal experiences.
➢Erik Erikson’s Post-Freudian Theory - According to
Erikson, human development does not end in childhood
but at old age. In a person’s lifetime, there is a
continuous process of identity development that is
characterized by eight stages.
➢George Herbert Mead’s Theory of the Social

Self - According to him, people exchange ideas in
a manner that is symbolic and meaningful. He
placed importance upon how people perceive
themselves and how these perceptions are greatly
affected by social interactions.
Meet these People
Identify the different theories of identity formation. Ask the class to theorize about the attitude and
behavior that these personas exhibit. Demonstrate how a specific theory will explain these attitudes
and behaviors.
1. Lala is 15 years old. She bites her nails when she feels anxious, especially when she wants to do
something but is worried that others will not approve of it.
2. Jean has one sister. When she was three years old, she was asked, “How many siblings does your
sister have?” She answered, “None.” Now that she is eight years old, she replies, “One, and that
is me.”
3. In his early adolescence, Danny believed that his role was to follow the rules, perform his duties,
and respect authorities. In college, he started questioning rules and authorities and followed
those he agreed with.
4. Lola Rose is 63 years old. It has been three years since she retired from work. She constantly
asks herself about her worth and contribution to society. Since her children are all independent
now, she contributes her time and resources to charitable work.
5. John’s parents observed his significant development. Before, he simply says, “I want a cookie!”
Now, he says, “Will Mommy give me a cookie?”
Identify if the statement is True or False.
1. Erik Erikson is a psychodynamic theorist who formulated his own theory
as an extension of Freud’s.
2. According to supporters of the nature principle, human personality and
identity is inborn and inherited.
3. Socialization is the lifelong social process where people develop their
individual potential and learn or adapt to culture.
4. Contemporary social scientists argue that there is no correct option
between nature and nurture as both instances are salient in ensuring a
person’s development.
5. Lawrence Kohlberg postulated that human beings also develop moral
identities as influenced by their environmental and interpersonal
experiences.
