Indian Social Structure Social Structure is a basic concept in the society. Since long several efforts have been made to define social structure, still there is no unanimity of opinion on its definition; Herbert Spencer was the first thinker to throw light on the structure of society.

Social interaction is one of the indirect ways learning by doing. The establishment of satisfying group life outside the family is pre- requisite for effective social living, which every individual must accomplish though out his life. All human beings do not live alone and group life is basic for every human being. Another important area of social work is social group work, which deals with the individuals as a member of the group. Introduction: Since humans are social animals, the overpowering role of the society on the life of human beings cannot be negated as individuals are shaped by the society that they live in. Individuals in the process of living in the society and being a part of that society, build certain social relationships with other members of the society as well as the environment that they are a part of. These social relationships and the way they play out in the lives of individuals actually define the nature and personality of human beings. As long as these relationships play along smoothly, society also functions smoothly without problems but when problems occur and relationships are obstructed due to barriers in communication, the whole social order is impacted. Social work as a discipline deals with understanding these human problems and finding a solution to the same. Human Behavior Human behavior can be understood as the capacity of mental, physical, emotional, and social activities experienced during the five stages of a human being’s life - prenatal, infancy, childhood, adolescence, and adulthood. This also includes the behaviors as dictated by culture, society, values, morals, ethics, and genetics. The behavior of humans (and other organisms or even mechanisms) falls within a range with some behavior being common, some unusual, some acceptable, and some outside acceptable limits. In sociology, behavior in general is characterized as having no meaning, being not directed at other people, and thus is the most basic human action. Behavior in this general sense should not be mistaken with social behavior, which is a more advanced action, as social behavior is behavior specifically directed at other people. The acceptability of behavior depends heavily upon social norms and is regulated by various means of social control. Human behavior is studied by the specialized academic disciplines of psychiatry, psychology, social work, sociology, economics, and anthropology. Multiple Choice Questions-2 Questions:
