The correct answer is the first one: SOCIAL PATHOLOGY.

Explanation:

The correct answer is the first one: SOCIAL PATHOLOGY. To understand better the answer we should know what we are referring to:

SOCIAL PATHOLOGY: It is a concept that refers to social problems; it involves mistaken behaviours inside a specific social group; being able to evaluates social acts in normal or abnormal is closely related to the values, beliefs and conducts that one social group has in a determined moment, because we also have to take into account that all that is seen as good or bad changes with the times.

We can list, for example, three social sicknesses that now, in our group and era, can be valued as negative ones:

1. Alcoholism

2. Drug addiction

3. Mental problems

We can say that all those behaviours are not well seen, so they are classified as social pathologies and this is why we have programs and groups made to help the people that live with them.
