Harper Porter · Answer 1

d. culture of poverty.

Explanation:

Culture of poverty is a concept based on social theory which suggests that poverty affects the values of the people living in it in a way that it influences their next generations as well. This is based on the idea that poor people tend to suffer from malnutrition and live in impoverished conditions and this influences their decisions leading to destructive and bad decision making. It is often said that poor people make poor decisions and this concept provides a theoretical ground for it.
