What is the symbolic Interactionist theory of the family?

Question

A. Provide rules, norms, and values through socialization

B. To serve the males and particularly the father

C. To trade resources

D. Is different depending on the perceptions of the family member

Answer 1

D.

The perception of the situation is a critical aspect to SI theory.  A is an example of structural/functionalism, B is conflict/feminist theory, C is Exchange theory.  So, it has to be D and it fits with what you should know about SI (it is all about the perception of the situation, the values of symbols used, and the reflected perception of self).  I hope that helps!
