Which of the following actions would be an example of in-group orientation?
a. a light-skinned African American woman claims to be white in order to avoid discrimination and violence.
b. a man renounces society and moves to a cabin in the woods.
c. a woman writes on her social media, "I am black, trans, and proud!"
d. a man wears a T-shirt identifying him as a member of a popular fraternity

"In-group orientation" means in sociology people believing and belonging to a certain groups in the society based on common believes, common liking and dislikes or common race or choice. Such groups are called 'in-groups'.

Thus a person wearing a T-shirt and identifying himself as a member of a popular 'fraternity' means he belongs to a in-group in which there is common interest among its members. This action shows an in-group orientation.

Thus the answer is

d. a man wears a T-shirt identifying him as a member of a popular fraternity

Answer:

The correct answer for: Which of the following actions would be an example of in-group orientation? Is: C. A woman writes on her social media, "I am black, trans, and proud!"

Explanation:

To understand this question we first need to analyze all of the options:

The first one is not a real identification it's mere survival so in this case, this can't be applied. She doesn't feel she is white, she just wants to not suffer or being African American.

In the second place, the man renouncing to society is doing the opposite of belonging to a group.

In third place a woman who writes on her social media, "I am black, trans, and proud!" Is identifying herself to three different social groups to let everyone know she is proud and this is the defining factor. In a group, orientation is characterized by being proud of belonging to the groups.

Fourth, the mn identifying himself as a member of a popular fraternity doesn't guarantee us that he is part of the fraternity or if he is by likeness and not social pressure.
