Individualization is a differentiation that is made by attributing distinctive characteristics to the thing in question.
Differentiation that is made by distinguishing something or someone by their distinctive characteristics
It should be noted that individualization in any of the situations in which it occurs will be closely related to the concept difference and diversity.
Meanwhile, the difference will be that quality that allows us to distinguish one thing from another, therefore, the difference is absolutely opposed to the concept of equality or similarity.
The greater the amount of things that one thing or that a person does not share with others, the greater the difference that exists objectively between the two.
The other side of the difference would be identical, that is, when things are exactly the same, they will be said to be identical.
Highlight the traits that make something or someone unique
Normally, when we want to distinguish a product from the rest or we want to highlight the task that a person carries out in a certain area, we usually expose those different situations that make them unique and therefore take them out of the ordinary, out of the ordinary.
The individualization can be carried out from the senses, that is, to sight, touch, smell or taste, it will be said that this or that differs from this or that. Although individualization can also be established through symbolic issues, for example, two twins may turn out to be identical in sight but at the same time, with respect to character, to be very different from each other, one being calmer and the other more impulsive.
Applications
On the other hand, at the request of a plan or a project that failed, it will be of vital importance to apply the concept of individualization for each point or part that made it up, since analyzing one by one, that is, individualizing each of the steps that occurred, the cause of failure can be inferred and a successful alternative can be proposed.
Then, the concept can be applied to various things, elements, people and other living beings, and in the most different areas, however, this action of individualization becomes extremely relevant when the purpose is to substantially differentiate two or more options, alternatives , which a priori may seem similar but in reality they are not, while, when singularization or individualization is carried out, it will be allowed to choose the one that most represents or we like.
So we can apply individualization to the choice of clothing, a university or a house in which we will live.
Let's think about the search for an apartment to move in, when the search begins, once the area is determined, several options will be visited that meet our conditions of values, footage, number of bedrooms, among others, now, for More than the units that we visit coincide in respecting these characteristics, surely, each one of them will present their own and unique characteristics that will individualize them and that will mark for or against the difference with the rest of the options visited.
On the other hand, when an organization or educational institution receives a large barrage of requests for scholarships, for example, it must, in order to act as correctly and fairly as possible, individualize each of the cases presented, that is, of the requests, the reasons, the personal and family situation of the person who requests it, among others, in order to be able to resolve it in a satisfactory and corresponding way to whoever is entitled or deserves to receive it.
In this type of situation there are many people who present themselves before these opportunities, and there are probably some who do not need a scholarship to study and who can in fact pay for their education expenses, so, at this point is that you should aim the case studies, to identify those individuals who really need them.
