Answer 1

Answer:

Proscriptive norms                                                                    

Explanation:

Norms: In sociology, the term "norms" is described as the different social expectations that generally guides an individual's behavior. However, it explains what an individual would do in a specific situation.

Proscriptive norms: The term "proscriptive norms" is defined as a norm that an individual is not expecting to do or to implement. Proscriptive norms generally vary from one culture to that of another culture and therefore can be considered as the similarly opposite in expectations to that of other cultures.

In the question above, the given statement signifies the "proscriptive norms".
