failed

The answer is B: as countries get richer, there seems to be a shift from traditional values to "secular-rational" values.

Explanation for each option:

A. Globalization has resulted in increasing divergence across cultures.

  • This statement is incorrect. Globalization tends to lead to cultural convergence rather than divergence, as it facilitates the exchange of ideas, values, and practices across different cultures.

B. As countries get richer, there seems to be a shift from traditional values to "secular-rational" values.

  • This statement is correct. The World Values Survey has found that as countries experience economic growth, there is often a shift from traditional values, which emphasize religion, family, and authority, to secular-rational values, which prioritize individual autonomy and rationality.

C. Economic progress is accompanied by a shift in values away from individualism to collectivism.

  • This statement is incorrect. Economic progress is generally associated with a shift towards individualism, as people gain more personal freedom and autonomy with increased wealth and development.

D. As countries prosper economically, the tendency for cultures to converge is diminished.

  • This statement is incorrect. Economic prosperity often leads to cultural convergence, as wealthier countries tend to adopt similar secular-rational values and lifestyles, influenced by globalization and modernization.
