Quizplus · Accepted Answer

An aggregate refers to a collection of individuals who are in the same physical space, but do not necessarily interact with or have any connection to one another. The people waiting at a traffic light, shoppers in a department store, and passengers on an airplane flight are all examples of aggregates. Categories are broader classifications that do not necessarily involve physical proximity or interaction, while social groups and primary groups imply some level of social interaction and connection between individuals.
