A) North Americans
B) People with low uncertainty avoidance
C) None of these
D) People with high uncertainty avoidance

Answer 1

B) People with low uncertainty avoidance

Step-by-step explanation:

Uncertainty avoidance is how cultures differ on the amount of tolerance they have of unpredictability. Mostly, uncertainty avoidance deals with technology, law, and religion. People with low uncertainty avoidance cultures accept and feel comfortable in unstructured situations or changeable environments and tend to be more pragmatic and more tolerant of change. People in cultures with high uncertainty avoidance try to minimize the occurrence of unknown and unusual circumstances.
