Which concept describes the social rules that guide behavior and expectations in society?

Norms Folkways Mores Values

Correct Answer:

Norms

Explanation:

Norms are the social rules that guide behavior and expectations in society. They tell people what is considered appropriate in everyday interactions, helping social life run smoothly as others anticipate how you will act. Some norms are casual and loosely enforced, known as folkways; violations lead to mild disapproval but not serious sanctions. Other norms, mores, carry moral significance and violations can bring strong sanctions. Values are broad beliefs about what is desirable or important, shaping which norms exist, but they are not the everyday rules that govern conduct themselves. That's why norms best fit the description.
