Answer 1

Answer: The correct answer is Preference.

Explanation: Preference is a concept used in social sciences such as psychology that decribes individual attitudes toward a set of objects.

Preferences are influenced by multiple factors that can be external such as education, cultural background, society and so on. And internal such as happiness, gratification and identity.
