Answer:b. symbolic interactionism

Explanation:

Symbolic interactionism is a theory that looks at personal influence on relationships created amongst individuals within the society.

This is how people find meaning in their social world, it is a perspective that focuses on a person actively influencing the shape of their social world rather than allowing others to pose it upon them hence they are in control of shaping their own social world and not bystanders.

Symbolic interaction look at how people interact such as how people attribute to their actions and interactions.
