Jovan Singh · Answer 2

Answer:D. The way in which individuals think in social situations

Explanation:

Social cognition is a cognitive process that focuses in studying social situational experience by considering how people think, process, store, and apply information about other people in social situations. It focuses on the role that cognitive processes play in our social interactions by the way individuals think, and interact with the environment around us. Social cognition is sometimes confused with Social psychology which explains how humans influence and relate to other people and the social situations they find themselves but social cognition specifically explains the mental process of individuals in social situations.
