The four elements of a group structure are:
- Roles are socially defined expectations that individuals in a given situation are expected to fulfill.
- Norms are expected standards of behaviour and beliefs established, agreed upon, and enforced by group members.
- Status refers to the relative social position given to group members by others.
- Cohesiveness refers to togetherness, binding, or mutual attraction among group members. As the group becomes more cohesive, group members start to think, feel and act as a social unit.
