Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Behaviours, appearances, and thoughts that are readily accepted by a society are known as "normative" because they conform to or follow the norms, or expected standards, of that society. Although "acceptable" and "proper" may also be used to describe such behaviours, they do not have the same sociological connotation as "normative." "Popular" may refer to behaviours or trends that are currently in vogue, but it does not necessarily imply social acceptance or conformity to norms.
