Unit IX

I. Read and translate the text. Group Dynamics

Sociologists describe the
operation of social groups as group dynamics. As members of social
groups, people are likely to interact according to a number of
distinctive patterns.

Group Leadership

Social groups vary in the
extent to which they designate one or more members as leaders, with
responsibility to direct the activities of all members. Some
friendship groups grant no one the clear status of leader, while
others do. Within families, parents generally share leadership
responsibilities, although husband and wife sometimes disagree about
who is really in charge. In many secondary groups, such as business
office, leadership is likely to involve an established status with
clearly defined roles.

There are several different
ways in which a person may become recognized as the leader of a
social group. In the family, traditional cultural patterns confer
leadership on the parents, though more often on the male as a head of
the household if two spouses are present. In other cases, such as
friendship groups, one or more persons may gradually emerge as
leaders, although there is no formal process of selection. In larger
secondary groups, leaders are usually formally chosen through
election or recruitment.

Although leaders are often
thought to be people with unusual personal ability, decades of
research have failed to produce consistent evidence that there is any
category of “natural leaders.” It seems that there is no set of
personal qualities that all leaders have in common; rather, virtually
any person may be recognized as a leader if the person has qualities
that meet the needs of that particular group.

Furthermore, although it is
commonly supposed that social groups have a single leader, research
suggests that there are typically two different leadership roles that
are held by different individuals. Instrumental leadership is
leadership that emphasizes the completion of tasks by a social group.
Group members look to instrumental leaders to “get things done.”
Expressive leadership, on the other hand, is leadership that
emphasizes the collective well-beings of a social group’s members.
Expressive leaders are less concerned with the overall goals of the
group than with providing emotional support to group members and
attempting to minimize tension and conflict among them. Group members
expect expressive leaders to maintain stable relationships within the
group and provide support to individual members.
