Social Factors

A social factor can be a variety of different aspects in an individuals life that effect them on a daily basis. It ranges from the environments we encounter on a daily basis, all the way to the gender of a person and the sexuality of a person as well. What's all in between are factors such as the social class of a person and where they view themselves on the social hierarchy which relates to their view of their status and prestige, etc., their nation and neighborhood are social factors as well, race, ethnicity, or religion can be associated with social factors as well, and the social relationships we have with people on a daily basis.

Psychological, biological and genetic factors are all different in their own form, but relate to one another in a way that without one, we cannot have the other. Psychological factors are the attitudes, thoughts, and feelings we have about the social factors we encounter on a daily basis. The biological factors is the way we respond to the outside world and how we let it effect us on a daily basis. Genetic components is the hereditary components that we obtain from our parents that determine certain aspects of who we are and how we may act. The behavioral characteristics that we all possess can be determined by genetic factors.

The idea of a social factor is that everything we encounter can effect us as in individual, and can even change our perception all the way to changing the way we behave. Even though some of our behaviors are predetermined due to genetics, the environment and the way we view it can greatly impact our lives. We as people encounter numerous social factors on a daily basis, and all these encounters shape us into who we are and who we will become in the future.
