Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Ethnocentrism is the belief that one's own culture is superior to others, leading to a tendency to judge other cultures by one's own cultural standards. Therefore, choice B represents the feeling that one's cultural rules and norms are more appropriate than the rules and norms of another culture. The other choices refer to different concepts such as diversity management, resistance to change, and exclusion of certain groups, which are not necessarily related to ethnocentrism.
