Material Detail

Hello! This 5-minute Introduction to Sociology video explains the concept of the looking-glass self and its impact on our self-identity. We discuss this process as developed and defined by sociologist Charles Horton Cooley. We explore examples and reflect on how our perception of others and their perceptions of us influence all social interactions.

Reflection questions are included on the site.
