QUESTION
Tendency of people to consider their own culture of high value and superior to other is?
OPTIONS
(A) Ethnocentrism
(B) Cultural lag
(C) Norms
(D) Values
ANSWER
(A) Ethnocentrism
EXPLANATION
Ethnocentrism refers to valuing one's own culture as superior and judging other cultures against one's own cultural standards. Cultural lag concerns unequal rates of change among cultural elements, while norms and values are components of culture rather than this evaluative tendency. Hence, option (A), ethnocentrism, is correct.
