How Does Social Factors Influence Human Development

This report will explain social and biological factors that influence human development. The report will also analyse the importance of social roles in the context of a health and social care setting.
Socialisation plays an important role on human behaviour. Socialisation will have an impact on human behaviour, on the way a human should act, think and feel in an appropriate manner (Social, 2012). An example of socialisation are child rearing, how to eat, to wear clothes in public are some example of how human behaviour shapes an individual to conform to socially acceptable ways (Sparknotes,2012).
During the interview J shows all aspects of socialisation. J functions well as a member of society; this includes the ‘norms’ of society, values

Chromosomes are made from male reproductive and female reproductive cells. The chromosomes are made up of chemical structure called DNA. This contain the genetic code
A genotype is all the genes an individual will inherit, the expression of these traits are an individual’s genotype. The genotype can include traits such as height, eye colour as well as non physical traits such as shyness and an individual’s temperament.
Gordon Allport trait theory states that central traits are basic to an individual’s personality. Allport’s traits theory has three levels. The cardinal trait, this can be the trait that it dominates an individual’s life time. This trait can be so prominent in an individual’s life time that they are specifically known for this. The central traits -This strait are the general characteristics that are the basic foundations of an individual’s personality. This can include personality traits like honesty, shyness. The secondary trait – these traits are sometimes linked to attitudes. They are likely to show in a certain situation. An example of this could be an individual becoming anxious when talking in front of a group of

Chromosomes are found in every living cell. They are made up from strands of DNA. In the DNA there are parts of it called genes (Manda, A, 2014).
Genetics is the study of heredity. Heredity is a biological process when parents pass certain genes on to their children. Every child inherits genes from their parents and these genes turn into traits (Manda, A, 2014).
Arnold Gessel (2013), believed that a child is born with a set of generic instructions that is passed down from the parents. Gessel believed that these generic instructions would unfold over time. Gessel believed that the environment did not have an impact on an individual’s behaviour and that it was purely genetic (Cherry, 2012). Gessel (2013) stated that the environment would only support these generic instructions.
This theory would suggest that everything that has happened in J’s life time would be predetermined before she was even born.
An individual’s behaviour can also be influenced by other people. In society people expect people to behave in certain ways. Social situations have a set of expectations about the right way to behave (McLeod,
