Question

Kevin is a black high school senior. While walking home from a sporting event at school, he sees a police car and decides to take another street to avoid it. He worries that the police will stop and question him even though he has not done anything wrong. Which theory explains this thought process? Dramaturgy Social construction of reality Social exchange theory Ethnomethodology

Answer 1

Ethnomethodology theory

Step-by-step explanation:

Take note of the fact that we are told Kevin worries that the police will stop and question him even though he has not done anything wrong.

This statement shows us that Kevin already understood his society from past experiences, and thus he tries to avoid social interactions with particular member of his society (the police) who may be show discrimination towards him.
