Quote by: Charles Cooley
George Herbert Mead FurtherDeveloped How people act towards interactions based on the meaning that these interactions have for them; and these meanings are derived from social interactions and modified through interpretation ... what? qualitative research methods, like participation observation are used to study aspects of social interaction and/or individuals themselves.

Basic Concepts and Principles Basic communication method of human interaction When interaction occurs:The human brain processes all of this information at an extremely speedy rate. This occurs without knowledge that it is even happening. Meaning must be placed onto words with emphasis before a response can be formatted. Body language, tone, facial expression, intonation, and the words spoken are all one unit.
Real World Example: When a gesture has the same meaning for both, the two parties understand each other. It signifies what the person is to do to the intended person; it signifies what the person who is making the gesture intends to do; and it signifies the joint action that is to arise by the articulation of the acts of both.

Content By Tori Peacock Legalizing Marijuana The legalization of marijuana is an extremely controversial topic. People who support the legalization are most likely people who use the drug to get high. These highs can be known as a vacation from life as it gives a person a break from reality. A big stress factor that has recently been escalated is money. The economic downturn has got people starting to feel a pinch and might want a break from worrying. A group of teens might pressure a new friend to try the drug, and the new teen believes that since everybody else is doing it that it is socially acceptable. Teens will especially be affected because they are an easily persuaded audience and easily affected by their environment. If marijuana was legalized, a lot of the appeal would be lost because users would not be going against family and governmental beliefs. In the bigger picture Marijuana is a symbol of living in freedom and living the life.
