β€œAccording to the video, early North American cultural anthropology focused on cultural differences. How might understanding these differences help us understand how children are raised differently in different societies? The video mentions that culture impacts human thought, cognition, and behavior. Give an example of a cultural norm and explain how it socializes individuals to behave in a specific way. The video contrasts cultural anthropology with social anthropology. Considering this contrast, how does studying culture help us understand how individuals learn and internalize the values and beliefs of their society?”
