Diego is a sweet and gentle young man who was raised in a family that encouraged him to show emotions. At age 18, he joins the U.S. Marines and encounters a very different emotional environment. Diego learns to function within this new environment, which is a process called:_______.

Answer 1

Resocialization.

Step-by-step explanation:

As the exercise suggests, resocialization is a process in which many aspects of an individuals' social values are re-organized, changed. Just as in the example: Diego is a sweet and gentle young man who was raised in a family that encouraged him to show emotions. At age 18, he joins the U.S. Marines and encounters a very different emotional environment. He goes from a context which encouraged him to say how he felt, to show emotions, as he just has to do what he is told. This phenomenon often happens when taken from the family home into a bootcamp of some sorts, just as Diego did.
