| List the four functions part of Murdock's four function model | 1) Stable Sexual Satisfaction 2) Reproduction 3) Primary Socialisation 4) Financial Stability |
| Provide a strength for Murdock's four function model | There is heavy evidence to support Murdock's theory. Firstly, he studied 250 different cultures/societies and found evidence of these functions in each of these areas |
| Is Murdock's theory in date? (Develop your answer) | Murdock's theory is dramatically out of date. Feminism has impacted western societies greatly and has shown evidence of women independence not having an intense negative social stigma. Also, there are now other types of 'family' such as same sex relationships and cohabitation which doesn't require the same functions. |
| Describe the two types of society, according to Parsons | 1) Pre-industrial = Extended family fits best 2) Industrial = Nuclear family fits best |
