The right answer is: B. individualistic.

Individualistic societies are those in which the social point of view focuses on the individual over the group. This type of society promotes independent personal development and self-sufficiency of the individual by giving a fundamental value to personal opinion superior to the opinion of the social group.

Most of the "western" countries have an individualistic social style, unlike many "oriental" cultures, such as the Japanese, which have a collectivist social perspective.

I hope this information can help you.
