Essay aus dem Jahr 2018 im Fachbereich Soziologie - Sonstiges, Note: 3(VERY GOOD)2018B, , Veranstaltung: Social Psychology, Sprache: Deutsch, Abstract: This essay is concerned with reviewing research works on social rejection and describing its concepts, causes and outcomes. It also addressed the necessary mechanisms which will help to approach the problems resulted from social knockback. The key questions answered under it were what is social knockback? What factor initiates it? What will happen if a person faces social rejection? And what will be done to solve the problems created by social rejection? No one likes to be excluded and rejected by his/her friends, co-workers, family members and community members. Although Maslow argued that all people want to be accepted and included socially, every individual may face at least once a time throughout his/her life regardless of his or her age level, educational qualifications, ethnic backgrounds, socio-economic status and etc. Social rejection is directly proportional to the level of independence someone has achieved in his/her life either physically or mentally, economically or socially.
