D. Status set
The correct answer is D. Status set.
A “status set” refers to all the social positions (or statuses) that an individual occupies at a given time, along with the behaviors (roles) associated with those positions. For example, a person might be a student, a sibling, a worker, and a volunteer, each representing a different status with specific behaviors linked to each role. In contrast, “role” usually refers to the behavior associated with a single status.
