Explanation​:
Enculturation takes place whether or not caregivers or parents being enculturated are explicitly aware of exactly what they are enculturating. For example, in Fagot (1978), parents believed that they were demonstrating gender-neutral behaviors with children during play, but researchers observed that there were differences in what behaviors were praised and discouraged according to the child’s gender.

Enculturation describes acquiring the norms and values of a first or primary culture (answer choices B and C). Acculturation is the term that describes adapting to additional, new cultural environments.

Enculturation can occur through models in media, or through direct instruction in settings like school. This means answer choice D also describes enculturation.

Explanation​:
Answer choice D is correct. Social Identity Theory focuses on how individuals derive identities and self-esteem from the groups they belong to. It does not attempt to describe personal identity formation (option B) or inter- or intra-group dynamics (option C).

Answer choice A describes Social Cognitive Theory.

Explanation​:
Ecological fallacies are made when we take data gathered on a group and assume that each individual must embody those traits equally (choice A). For example, we would be committing an ecological fallacy if we assume that because someone is American, they must be highly individualistic.

While stereotypes do assume groups are homogenous and generalize traits, stereotypes do not need to be based on any empirical data at all (choice C)

Choice B explains population validity, and choice D explains ecological validity.

Explanation​:
Answer choice D references the minimal group paradigm created by Henri Tajfel, who created Social Identity Theory. In one of his famous studies, Tajfel (1970), two groups of boys were told that they ended up in the same group because they all liked the same artwork, when in reality, they were randomly allocated to each group. Although this shared identity was actually based on an arbitrary (random) assigned trait, the boys could still derive social identities and self-esteem from belonging to that group.

Explanation​:
Answer choice C is the only option that does not accurately categorize globalization. Some countries have been able to disproportionately influence global values due to the historical power they have held in the international sphere, such as the United States.

Explanation​:

The gatekeeper theory is a psychology and communication theory related to who controls access to information and ideas in a social group. It is a group of people who decide/control what information has to be shared with the people.

Option A explains comparative studies, option B focuses on cultural transmission, and option C defines culture.

Explanation​:
Protective factors reduce acculturative stress. Sharing similar values with family members can promote greater support and unity within the household (choice A), and sufficient income also reduces stress (choice C).

Bilingualism is considered a protective factor as it widens the social support network available to individuals (choice B).

A strong preference for only speaking English predicts high acculturative stress, as language preferences may also reveal the extent to which individuals may want to limit their relationship with their primary culture. The lowest levels of acculturative stress tend to occur for individuals who integrate, i.e., those who maintain positive relationships with both cultures.

Explanation​:
Studies on culture and interpersonal relationships often rely on self-reporting questionnaires as $\text{‘}$happiness', $\text{‘}$cultural norms' and $\text{‘}$satisfaction' is subjective and cannot be accurately measured by a third party. It may also be that members of collectivistic cultures are less likely to share negative feelings regarding their marriage/relationships because of the fear of society.

Explanation​:
Illusory correlations are a cognitive bias, in which we tend to see relationships when they do not exist. We may create stereotypes when we see relationships between groups and traits that we hear other people discuss, see on the news, and so on.

Answer choice B is the grain of truth hypothesis. This theory of stereotype formation requires direct experience with a member of a group that serves as a basis for the stereotype.

Answer choice C describes confirmation bias, and choice D describes out-group homogeneity.

Explanation​:
Answer choice A involves long-term orientation, a cultural dimension. This answer relates a feature of culture to its effect on behavior and outlines the findings of Chen et al. (2005).

Choice B mentions an in-group, which is not synonymous with a cultural group. This outlines the findings of Abrams et al. (1990), a study on Social Identity Theory.

Choice C outlines how confirmation bias is related to the effect of stereotypes.

Choice D outlines one finding of Bandura (1961) and does not present an effect of culture on behavior.

Explanation​:

Community (A) is an example of secondary socialisation.

Secondary socialisation is becoming part of a larger social group like a community or neighbourhood. These factors influence behaviour in the later age groups by affecting the primary factors.

Socialisation is the process of becoming a member of a social group. These factors tend to influence adherence to/deviance from societal norms indirectly. They play a role in forming individual beliefs, behaviour and identities.

Options B, C and D are examples of primary socialisation.

Explanation​:

Vertical collectivism is when group members merge with the ingroup and submit to an authority in that ingroup.

Option A focuses on social identity theory, C is horizontal individualism and D is horizontal collectivism.

Explanation​:

Power distance is the extent to which people accept unequal distributions of power. In a high power distance culture, the boss makes all the important decisions, and employees accept the total authority of their superiors. In a low power distance culture, decisions are made more collaboratively, and all employees expect some say in how things are done.

Masculinity describes the importance given to achievement and striving for success.

Explanation​:
Choices A, B, and D are each included in Berry's acculturation model.

The missing strategy is assimilation, which involves creating a positive relationship with the new culture, but failing to maintain a connection with the original culture.

Explanation​:

Chen found that participants primed with stimuli related to the American culture, were more likely to pay extra for the immediate shipping, while those primed with Singaporean culture were more likely to opt for the free shipping. Thus meaning, B is the correct statement.

Explanation​:
Unlike choice C, both B and D are related to enculturation. However, vertical transmission could consist of both direct and indirect methods of teaching culture. One such indirect method through the understanding of Social Cognitive Theory, which describes how children could learn cultural norms by watching models experience reinforcement or consequences.

Explanation​:
In the context of Social Identity Theory, salience describes being aware of an identity or group membership. It is fundamental because we must be aware of similarities and differences to engage in categorization and comparison, which leads to positive distinctiveness. In other words, none of the other mechanisms of Social Identity Theory can take place without first being aware of similarities and differences to form groups around.

Explanation​:
Cultural dimensions allow us to describe and discuss differences across cultures (choice C). Because cultural dimensions were created by surveying workplaces in each country, a country’s scores represent the dominant professional culture and do not represent differences within that culture (choice B). Cultural dimensions may shift due to environmental changes, but a cultural dimension score does not give us any information about how it may have changed over time (choice D).

Choice A needs to be more specific to describe cultural dimensions comprehensively.

Explanation​:

Hofstede conducted his research by mailing an extensive survey about workplace values to 117,000 IBM employees in 50 countries. Hofstede carried out his research using a questionnaire called the Values Survey Module. From the results, he created his cultural dimensions, which reflect the national cultural characteristics of a country.

Explanation​:

The process of studying cultures from an outside perspective looking in is known as the etic approach. A process in which cultural practices and beliefs are outside the culture.

It is the opposite of the emic approach, which focuses on understanding the culture from within/being a part of the culture closely.

Explanation​:
Choice A outlines acculturation, and choice B outlines Social Cognitive Theory. Enculturation is not a model itself, and it is not accurate to suggest that the end result is $\text{‘}$similarity$\text{’}$ to parents. This leaves choice B, which does accurately outline enculturation.

Explanation​:

The OCEAN model stands for openness, conscientiousness - extraversion, agreeableness, neuroticism.

The model was developed by MCrae and John in 1992 with a purpose to measure and compare personalities.

Explanation​:

In Social Cognitive Theory, the reproduction of a task is primarily affected by self-efficacy. The accurate reproduction of a task is dependent on high/low self-efficacy in an individual.

There are four primary sources of self-efficacy which are the following: mastery experiences, vicarious experiences, social persuasion, and emotional & physical states.

The negative acculturation effect refers to the diminishing difference between migrants and their native-born counterparts over time. It is the opposite of the healthy migrant effect (C), which suggests that recent migrants tend to be healthier than their native-born counterparts.

Option A represents separation, and B is for marginalisation.

Explanation​:
Stereotypes are often characterized as negative, but they can be positive as well. While stereotypes can be passed down within groups as a part of adopting the norms of that group, they are not considered values. Instead, stereotypes are better thought of as beliefs.
