Social behavior

Social behavior is behavior among two or more organisms, typically from the same species. Social behavior is exhibited by a wide range of organisms including social bacteria, slime moulds, social insects, social shrimp, naked mole-rats, and humans.

In sociology

Sociology is the scientific or academic study of social behavior, including its origins, development, organization, and institutions.

Research has shown that different animals, including humans, share the similar types of social behaviour such as aggression and bonding. This can also be the same with species with a primitive brain such as ants. Even though humans and animals share some aspects of social behaviour with species such as ants, human social behaviour is much more complicated.

In psychology

Social psychology is the scientific study of how people's thoughts, feelings, and behaviors are influenced by the actual, imagined, or implied presence of others. In psychology, social behaviour is referred to human behaviour. It covers behaviours ranging from physical to emotional that we communicate in and also the way we are influenced by ethics, attitudes, genetics and culture etc.
