Question:

Amita is a student council member of her school who takes her commitment towards environmental preservation very seriously. She organises various plantation drives and also is in charge of the school recycle plant. She gets very upset and sad when she sees people wasting or misusing paper or cutting trees. Her parents are also famous environmentalists who campaigned for a ban of plastics in the hill areas. They always praised and motivated Amrita to continue to be a pro-environment person.

How did Amita learn pro environmental attitude at home?

Options:

Learning attitudes through group norms

Learning attitudes by being rewarded

Learning attitude through exposure to information

Both 2 and 3

Correct Answer:

Both 2 and 3

Explanation:

Amita's parents are famous environmentalists who actively campaigned for environmental protection. They likely discussed environmental issues with Amita regularly, and they may have taken her to environmental events or protests. This exposure to information about environmental problems likely helped Amita to develop a pro-environmental attitude.

Similarly, Amita was being rewarded for adopting a pro-environmental attitude. For example, her parents always praised and motivated Amrita to continue to be a pro-environment person.

Therefore Option d is correct answer.
