Social integration and confiding in others are associated with which social variable?

• A. Social role involvements
• B. Ethnic expectations
• C. Religious resources
• D. Support satisfaction

Answer: (D)

The main idea here is how being connected to others and feeling able to share personal matters relates to how satisfied you are with the support you receive. When someone is socially integrated and comfortable confiding in others, they’re more likely to perceive their social support as adequate and responsive, which shows up as higher support satisfaction. The other terms describe different concepts—participation in social roles, cultural expectations, or resources from religious groups—and don’t specifically capture the evaluative, subjective sense of how satisfied a person feels with their social support.
