No matter if a population is human or artificial, we can surely identify phenomena that can be described as micro or macro phenomena. In this paper, we discuss micro and macro aspects of a population from a DAI and a sociological point of view. We analyse similarities and differences in these viewpoints, and identify misperceptions in the DAI community about the micro-macro terminology. We explain these misperceptions and argue for the transfer of sociologically founded concepts to agent-based social simulation. Our research is done in the DFG focus programme socionics. We cooperate with sociologists from University Hamburg-Harburg with the intention to transfer knowledge from sociology to DAI as well as from DAI to sociology. In cooperation with DFKI Saarbrücken we work on improving agent theories to be applied in large sized multi-agent systems in the freight logistics domain.
