Please help! Is this the correct answer!

I said the answer is B

Roles contribute to the streamlining of everyday interactions because they

a. permit us to make fundamental attributions in social situations.

b. allow us to anticipate the actions of others.

c. frequently put us in positions of indecision about appropriate behavior.

d. can be learned with relatively little effort.

All the teachers here sometimes give us the wrong answers for some reason. they need to stop that. it will be their fault for giving us the wrong answers but it will also be our faults because we just see answers and go oh i trust you but then they have the wrong answers as well. i hope i helped some minds on here!!! :)

I agree.

The correct answer is B - Roles allow us to anticipate the actions of others.

To determine whether the answer B is correct, let's analyze each option:

a. "Permit us to make fundamental attributions in social situations."
This option refers to the attribution theory, which is focused on how people explain the causes of behavior. Although it is related to social interactions, it does not directly address how roles contribute to streamlining everyday interactions. Therefore, option A is not the correct answer.

b. "Allow us to anticipate the actions of others."
This option suggests that roles enable us to predict and expect the behavior of others. Roles often come with specific expectations and responsibilities, which make it easier for us to anticipate how someone may act based on the role they occupy. Therefore, option B is a plausible answer.

c. "Frequently put us in positions of indecision about appropriate behavior."
This option implies that roles often confuse or create uncertainty about how one should behave. While it may be true that certain roles can create challenges in determining appropriate behavior, the question is specifically asking about the contribution of roles to the streamlining of everyday interactions. Option C does not directly address this aspect, so it is not the correct answer.

d. "Can be learned with relatively little effort."
This option suggests that roles are easy to learn. While this may be true for some roles, it does not necessarily address the streamlining of interactions. Therefore, option D is not the correct answer.

Based on the analysis, it appears that option B, "Allow us to anticipate the actions of others," is the most suitable answer as it directly relates to how roles contribute to the streamlining of everyday interactions.
