The right answer is a. True. This concept refers to the subjective perception of the lifestyle that an individual has in comparison to the society in which it belongs if the lifestyle is too low for society can feel deprived of their rights and consider that is worthy of a better lifestyle. This perception, despite being subjective, is realistic when compared with the rest of society.

I hope this information can help you.
