CHAPTER ONE
INTRODUCTION
1.1 Background to the Study
Social interaction is a dynamic sequence of social actions between individuals and groups of individuals who modify their actions and reactions due to actions by interacting with others (Okpe, 2012). According to Bales (2007), social interaction is largely made up of the talking that people do when they are together. Talk or conservation is the fulcrum of social interaction. Social interaction is so much a part of the means by which humans think that only rarely do they take it as an object of study in itself. Social structure can be described as the social exchange between two or more individuals. These interactions form the basis for social structure and therefore are key object of basic social inquiry and analysis. Social interaction can be studied between groups of two (dyads), three (triads) or larger social groups. Social structures and cultures are founded upon social interaction (Ezewu, 2009). By interacting with one another, people design rules, institutions and systems within which they seek to live. Symbols are used to communicate the expectations of a given society to those new to it.
