Lesson 9
Social relationships in
middle and late adolescents
Lesson 1
Roles of Individuals and the
Influence of Leadership
Objectives:
• distinguish the various roles of different individuals
in society and how the you can influence people
through their leadership or followership(EsP-
PD11/12SR-IIb- 10.1);
ACTIVITY
TIME
In here, you are tasked to review how you think and act considering some
factors (parents, peers, culture, and society) that affect you. In most cases,
how does each factor affect your thoughts and action? Provide a course of
action or decision with short explanation relevant to your own experience.
Scenarios:
1. Choosing your strand/track to take in studying.
2. Joining a club or organization inside and outside school.
3. The way you dress or your clothing style.
As you grow up, you get to know people
and build relationships by which you have
first had with your family. As human
persons, it is expected that you build
relationships or social relationships by
which also affect the way you think, decide
and even act on certain things.
Social relationships are your interactions
with other people. These kind of
relationships vary from the “degree of
intimacy and vulnerability you offer to
other people so as to cooperate and
achieve a certain objective.”
Four (4) Main types of relationships that
influence you as an adolescent:
(1) Parents,
(2) Peers,
(3) Community and
(4) Society.
Now, as you commit into social
relationships, you also have various roles
to represent. In the society, you can be
someone based on a social situation that
you decide to take. This is what we call as
role(s), as of the following:
POLITICAL
LEADERS
These are the people who create and
implement the laws of the land. They are
the role models through which we follow
the laws.
RELIGIOUS
LEADERS
these are the individuals who guide
their followers according to their faith.
They are keepers of religious
traditions and are also moral leaders.
TEACHERS
They are the educators of young
minds. They impart knowledge to the
young generation to become the next
generation of leaders.
CHILDREN
they are the ones that need to be

cared more and ensured that they
are supported with services they
mostly need.
CHURCH
MEMBERS
they are the people who commit to
practice their faith. They let their faith
grow and carry out their faith traditions.
CELEBRITIES
they are the people who promote ethical

behavior, responsible personal decisions, social
justice. They are also expected to show good
behaviors
ACTIVITY
TRUST TIME WALK
GAME
1. Divide the group into pairs; each group chooses who will be Player A
and B.
2. Player A will close her/his eyes (or put on a blindfold) and then Player
B will guide A on a journey around the space. (Depending on comfort
levels, B can place a hand on each of A’s shoulders, one arm around A’s
shoulders and/or hold A’s inside arm/wrist/hand in order to guide them
physically as well as verbally.)
3. Once directions are explained the group begins their work. After a set
number of minutes, switch roles so that Player A can lead Player B and
repeat the process
as you commit into social relationships, you may also find
yourself either leading or someone being led. From your
experience with the game,
you may have found out that you are a good leader or a good
follower which you can also see yourself in the context of
the society where you belong. Hence, being either a leader
or a follower influences other people
According to Chris Bernard, leadership is the ability of the
person in authority to guide others to achieve certain goals.
Leadership is also a way of influencing other people by which the
leader influence the followers to achieve the
organizational goals. Next to leadership is followership which is
the act or condition of following a leader. Being a follower is not
passive, one must be a critical thinker
and interactive in the act of helping the leader achieve the goal.
Thus, the leader and the follower need each other; there is a
dynamic relationship of mutual benefit and support between them
Nevertheless, being either a leader or follower gives you the
opportunity to influence people around you. Social influence
is the impact of a person to another person which causes the
latter to change his behavior as convinced by the influencer.
Some social influences are known as:
conformity - is behaving as others do. This is desiring to

belong to peers and seek their approval in order to feel
that you are one of them.
compliance – an individual is doing something that
another individual has told them to do. This is also
another way of an adolescent to feel belong with peers.
obedience – this is accepting and doing something
directed to you by a person you look up as someone in
authority. In most cases in obedience, you believe that
you don’t have a choice
Now, as an adolescent, you must have undergone
recognizing yourself, knowing your strengths and
limitations and discovering about the person you are.
By that, you are now capable of knowing where you
stand in either a leader or a follower by which suits
and makes you a better person
(Going back to the Trust Walk Game)
Which did you prefer—leading or being led? Why?
What responsibilities did you have as the leader? As
the person being led?
What does it take to trust someone to lead you? What
does it take to be trustworthy leader?
Lesson 2
Perception of oneself and others
Objectives:
• compare one’s perception of himself/herself
and how others see him/her(EsP-PD11/12SR-
IIc- 10.2);
THE FUNERAL TEST
To do this, write your own eulogy and answer questions:
1. How do I want people to speak of me at my funeral?

2. What should they remember me for?
3. Which kind of person will people think I was when
I’m gone?
The story of
the Grass-
eating Tiger
Perceiving and Presenting the Self
A perception is how we see things, our assessment -

real or otherwise. Our perceptions of people and
things are shaped by our prior experiences, our
interests, and how carefully we process information.
Perceiving and Presenting the Self
Self-perception the view we have about ourselves, our

characteristics, and the judgments we make about the
traits we have. Self-perception includes our self-
concept (the image we have in our heads of who we
are) and our self-esteem (how we judge the
characteristics we possess).
The development of self-perception happens
althroughout a person’s lifetime.
Many questions arise as to what kind of person you
are and what kind of person others see and/or know
you. Thus, in the study of self, there three (3) core
concepts
to understand --- self-concept, self-esteem and self-
efficacy.
Self-concept refers to the view someone has of
themselves after evaluating their own beliefs, physical
and mental attributes, likes and dislikes, strengths and
weaknesses. Self-concept is developed in ways like: a
person’s interaction with others and their reaction to
him and comparisons to other people (as in superiority
and inferiority, similarity and
difference).
Self esteem , a person’s sense of their value or
worth. People determine their worth after
evaluating their own characteristics and forming
an opinion of themselves.
Self-efficacy is an individual belief that they can
do certain things based on how they view
themselves and how successful they have been
in the past. Self-efficacy is developed through
experience. This is also about the person’s
extent of seeing himself as an effective
individual
DISCOVER YOUR EULERIAN DESTINY
Filling out the Eulerian Destiny circles provokes
critical thinking and self-reflection.
Doing this requires you to look at four areas of your
life by answering the following questions.
