Anomie refers to a

Question

Anomie refers to a

BlackTom AI · Accepted Answer

The question asks about the concept of anomie and presents four possible statements to evaluate.
Option 1: 'construct or model for evaluating specific cases.' This is not an accurate description of anomie. Anomie is not a general evaluative construct or a model used for case-by-case assessment; it is a sociological term referring to a breakdown or weakening of social norms and social integration.
Option 2: 'loss of direction that is felt in a society when social control of individual behavior has become ineffective.' This is a classic and widely accepted definition of anomie. It captures the idea that when norms loosen or fail to regulate behavior, individuals may feel aimless or adrift, reflecting a societal level of normlessness.
Option 3: 'classification scheme containing two or more categories.' This describes a taxonomy or dichotomous/multicategory classification scheme in general, not the specific concept of anomie. It does not convey the normative or societal collapse aspect that characterizes anomie.
Option 4: 'type of suicide caused by depression.' This is incorrect. Anomie relates to social norms and integration, not to a particular psychological cause of suicide such as depression. It does not describe a type of suicide.

In summary, only option 2 correctly defines anomie, while options 1, 3, and 4 mischaracterize the concept or apply an unrelated idea to it.
