Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Eric's behavior is an example of the "real" culture, which refers to the actual behaviors and actions of individuals within a culture, as opposed to the ideal culture, which refers to the values and beliefs that a culture aspires to uphold. Eric may believe in the idea of success, which would align with the ideal culture of his college community, but his actions (not spending as much time studying) reflect the actual behaviors within his culture (real culture). The concepts of material and universal culture are not relevant to this scenario.
