One Word

Question:

Select one word for the following group of words.

Morals that govern one's behavior

Options:

Ethics

Intuition

Psychology

Attitude

Correct Answer:

Ethics

Explanation:
 

The one-word substitution for the group of words "morals that govern one's behavior" is ethics.

  • Ethics is a system of moral principles that govern the conduct of a person or group.
  • Intuition is the ability to understand something instinctively, without the need for conscious reasoning.
  • Psychology is the study of the mind and behavior.
  • Attitude is a settled way of thinking or feeling about something.

The word ethics is the most appropriate because it specifically refers to the moral principles that govern a person's behavior. The other words do not have the same connotation of being moral principles.
