Social psychologists are interested in how thoughts and behaviors are rooted in culture. When studying culture, psychologists take into consideration which of the following?
  1. Language
  2. Norms
  3. Technology
  4. All of the above
Explanation
Answer: D - When studying culture, psychologists take into consideration language, norms, and technology.
It is widely known that culture is defined by language, beliefs, and behaviors. The norms of a culture also must be taken into consideration when studying individuals, as what is considered “normal” in one culture may be abnormal in another. Familiarity with or access to technology also has an impact on how groups of individuals think, learn, behave, etc. Thus, language, norms, and technology are all taken into consideration by psychologists when studying culture.
