Margaret Mead described three types of cultures based on the influence of peers and the transmission of culture: postfigurative (where children learn from their ancestors), cofigurative (where both children and their elders learn from their peers), and prefigurative (where children teach their elders). "Collectivistic cultures" is not a term Mead used in this context; it refers to a broader concept of how societies prioritize group over individual needs.
