According to __________, our feelings of self-esteem evolved to monitor the degree to which we are accepted by others.A. genetic theory B. sociometer theory C. depression theory D. reproductive theory

Respuesta :

Answer:

I am almost certain the answer is B. Sociometer theory. You may want to double check my answer, but socio- means "social, of society" coming from  Latin form socius, meaning "associate, fellow" and "to follow". So, by using elimination, shown below, and the idea that others will follow, or in this case accept something, I believe that answer choice B. is most likely the correct one.

A. is incorrect because genes do not have to do with self-esteem.

C. Depression Theory would mean the opposite of what you are trying to find.

D. Reproductive Theory also has nothing to do with self-esteem.

Sorry the answer is so long. I really hope that this helped.
