A social group is a collection of two or more people who interact
frequently with one another, share a sense of belonging, and have a
feeling of interdependence. An aggregate is a collection of people who
happen to be in the same place at the same time but share little else in
common (such as several people waiting for a traffic light to change). A
category is a number of people who may never have met one another but
share a similar characteristic (such as education level, age, race, or
gender).
