Summary/Abstract: Behaviors, emotions, and reasoning are influenced by the presence or absence of others - both physical and imagined. Social conventions, norms and values determine behaviors even in the physical absence of people who observe these respective behaviors and sanction them based on a continuous process of social control. The theory of a social constructed reality (social constructivism) will allow us to argue throughout the article the idea that nothing exists in society that does not have correspondences, components and psychological implications.
