Question

multiple choice question
which of the following is true of folkways?
most laws demand obedience to folkways in a society.
society is more likely to formalize folkways than mores.
violation of folkways raises little concern when compared with violation of mores.
folkways are a type of formal norms that govern cultural universals.

Explanation:

Folkways are informal social norms that govern routine, casual behaviors, while mores are strict norms tied to a group's core values. Violating folkways (e.g., wearing pajamas to a casual café) typically only draws mild disapproval, whereas violating mores (e.g., theft) triggers strong social condemnation or legal consequences. The other options are incorrect: laws rarely enforce folkways; mores are far more likely to be formalized into laws; folkways are informal, not formal, norms.

Answer:

Violation of folkways raises little concern when compared with violation of mores.
