Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Primary reference groups are face-to-face membership groups that touch people's lives directly. This can include family, close friends, and colleagues. Aspirational reference groups (option B) are people an individual aspires to be like, but they may not have a direct relationship with them. Option A is too restrictive as primary reference groups can include more than just friends, neighbors, and relatives. Option D refers to media and not direct face-to-face groups.
