Question

what is the lifelong process of social experience by which individuals develop human potential and learn the patterns of their culture?
peers
family
culture
transmission
socialization
education

Explanation:

To solve this, we analyze each option:

• Peers: A group of people of similar age, not a process of social experience for developing potential and learning culture.
• Family: A social unit, not the process described.
• Culture: The patterns themselves, not the process of learning them.
• Transmission: Implies passing something, not the lifelong process of social experience for development.
• Socialization: Defined as the lifelong process of social experience where individuals develop human potential and learn cultural patterns.
• Education: Often formal, while socialization is broader (includes informal learning too) and lifelong.

Answer:

E. Socialization
