Question:
Which of the following is NOT an example of a primary group?
Options:
Political party
Office organization
University
All of the above
Correct Answer:
All of the above
Explanation:
Primary groups, such as family, caste, and religion, are pre-existing formations that individuals are typically born into, fostering face-to-face interactions, close proximity, and emotional bonds. These groups play a fundamental role in shaping values and ideals during early development. In contrast, secondary groups, like political parties, are joined by choice, characterized by more impersonal and indirect relationships.
