Detailed explanation-1: -Sociologist George Herbert Mead believed that people develop self-images through interactions with other people. He argued that the self, which is the part of a person’s personality consisting of self-awareness and self-image, is a product of social experience.
Detailed explanation-2: -Social Self Theory Mead’s theory of the social self is based on the perspective that the self emerges from social interactions, such as observing and interacting with others, responding to others’ opinions about oneself, and internalizing external opinions and internal feelings about oneself.
Detailed explanation-3: -The looking-glass self describes the process wherein individuals base their sense of self on how they believe others view them. Using social interaction as a type of “mirror, ” people use the judgments they receive from others to measure their own worth, values, and behavior.
Detailed explanation-4: -Mead theorized that human beings begin their understanding of the social world through “play” and “game". Play comes first in the child’s development. The child takes different roles he/she observes in “adult” society, and plays them out to gain an understanding of the different social roles.
