Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Scholars typically distinguish between the independent self promoted by individualistic cultures and the interdependent self promoted by collectivistic cultures when discussing cultural differences in conceptions of the self. Option A reflects this distinction, making it the best choice. Option B is incorrect because it reverses the order of the terms. Options C and D refer to a different distinction between the self as an object versus the self as a being, which is not the same as the individualistic versus collectivistic distinction.
