The correct option is “exosystem; microsystem”. The example shows how the outside world that cannot be controlled affects the immediate setting, in this case, the family setting. We see exosystem here as a negative factor because Thomas lost his job, which is something that he couldn’t control, and this reality affected his intimate circle (wife and children). This negative change affected in turn the behaviors of all family members within his microsystem.
