Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Beth is experiencing culture shock, which is the feeling of disorientation and discomfort that can occur when individuals are exposed to a new culture that is significantly different from their own. She is likely experiencing culture shock due to the significant differences in lifestyle and living conditions between her affluent neighborhood in New York City and the dirt-floored hut she is living in while working in Africa. Cultural relativity refers to the idea that different cultures should be understood and judged based on their own values and standards, rather than those of one's own culture. Cultural diffusion refers to the spread of cultural beliefs, practices, and ideas from one culture to another. Cultural integration refers to the process by which different cultures come together to form a new and unique culture. None of these concepts accurately describe Beth's experience.
