Reference group

A reference group presents a set of norms which can influence our thought and opinions and these believes have a great impact on adolescence. Many times adolescence is not reluctant to accept the set of rules which can influence their opinions and social success hence cant be compared by defined sociology instead adolescence personality traits can be viewed as the reflection of their ideology rather than comparing with prescribed standards.
