QUESTION: 20

Most behaviors are learned and displayed in a cultural context.

True
False

Answer(s): A

Explanation:

While some behaviors are innate, like the "rooting" of an infant to bring his mouth close to whatever it's near in hopes of eating, or an infant's startle reflex, when his arms outstretch with loud noises, most behaviors are learned within a cultural context. For instance, the handshake is generally a gesture from the Western culture. A man should never extend his hand to a woman of another culture unless she extends a hand first. Another example is that "back-slapping" someone from Asia is considered aggressive. Signaling someone from an Asian culture to follow you or directing them with your index finger, a common gesture in America, is considered rude in these cultures. Same behavior, different cultures, which means they are learned.
