Answer: learned helplessness

Explanation:

Research done by psychologist indicate that when people feel out of control or that they can not control what is happening in their lives they have a tendency of giving up and accepting that it is their fate that these things are happening to them.

What Is Learned Helplessness?

Learned helplessness is a result of a subject being constant exposed to an aversive stimulus in which they are not able to escape. Over time the subject will accept this stimulus and adopt a helpless approach towards it in such that when presented with a chance to escape they will feel helpless to accept those opportunities.

The woman who has been exposed to an abusive relationship feel helpless that she can't not escape her fate in such that she can't even take a chance that may bring her relief.

olya-2409 [2.1K]

Answer: Tool Kit

Explanation: Ann Swidler, a sociologist came up with the idea that people use a tool kit consisting of symbols, stories, rituals, and world views to create a plan of action for solving problems.  This is how culture shapes our behavior and not through values. The way we draw on this tool kit varies during settled and unsettled cultural periods.

During settled cultural periods, culture arms individuals with several resources such as those in this tool kit. In unsettled cultural periods, action is determined by the available resources as well as defined values.
