Socialisation Defined. Page 55
The process of learning the beliefs, norms and values that are socially expected from us as members of a society or social group.
Process of internalizing norms (internalization is the process of acceptance of a set of norms established by people or groups which are influential to the individual. The process starts with learning what the norms are, and then the individual goes through a process of understanding why they are of value or why they make sense, until finally they accept the norm as their own viewpoint)

Anticipatory Socialisation
Facilitated by social interactions Non-group-members learn to take on the values
and standards of groups that they aspire to join, so as to ease their entry into the group and help them interact competently once they have been accepted by it
It is the process of changing one's attitudes and behaviours, in preparation for a shift in one's role
Words commonly associated with anticipatory socialization include grooming, play-acting, training and rehearsing
EXAMPLE: Nurse working night shift
