Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Janice is following a social convention, which is an unwritten rule or expectation accepted by members of a culture or society. In this case, the social convention is to take turns in a line, rather than pushing ahead of others. Social perspective taking involves the ability to see a situation from another person's point of view, social relativism is the belief that moral truths are relative to the individuals and cultures that hold them, and social induction involves drawing conclusions from specific observations about social phenomena. None of these concepts accurately describe Janice's behavior in this scenario.
