2. Interpersonal processes and primary groups, which include formal and informal social networks and social support systems, including family, co-workers, and peer and friendship networks.

3. Institutional factors, which includesocial institutions with organizational characteristics and formal and informal rules and regulations for operation. Institutions include schools, places of employment, places of worship, and civic groups.
