An associated group in SharePoint refers to the groups that are associated with the default roles in a SharePoint site. In SharePoint v3 these groups are Owners, Members, and Visitor. The groups are created by default when you create a new site collection. When you create a site inside an existing site collection the groups are created automatically if you select to not inherit permissions from the parent site.
