Mini-Lesson: Status vs. Class Distinction
- How are status and class distinction related?
- SOCIAL CLASS
An individual's social class influences their behavior, ideas and attitudes. (A popular kid acts differently than a not-so-popular kid.)
Socioeconomic Statusis a combination of an individual's work status as well as the individual's economic position based on income, education, and occupational prestige. This status has more movement and or changes over time. (For example, someone who had a great job as a top executive in a large corporation and then is laid-off and has to take a job as a children's party clown has had a big change in their socioeconomic status.)
