The correct answer is C. Reference groups
Explanation:
In sociology which is the field that studies society and social structures, human groups can be classified into different categories including primary/secondary groups, out/in groups and reference groups. In the case of reference groups, this includes classmates, co-workers and any other peer that mainly works as a reference for the individual in terms of standard of measurements. Indeed individuals in reference groups observe others and behave according to other people in order to fit. This can be seen in the case presented as a student is in a basketball team and she has not received an academic award her peers had, which makes the student measure herself in comparison to others that are a reference and in the same way other students mock at her because she does not fit in the group.

Thus, there are certain characteristics that frequently<u> co-occur </u>and lead to the definition of a certain category. It is worth mentioning, that certain members of a category are prototypical and they are not all equal. For example, if we think about the concept furniture, <em>table</em> is more frequently cited than <em>counter or desk</em>.
