Answer:b. situational norms

Step-by-step explanation:

Situational norms refer to the beliefs that are held concerning what is an accepted behavior when it comes to a certain situation, and these beliefs are acquired through normative behavior when it comes to those situations. These behavior are learnt and kept constantly in order to avoid those which are thought to be not accepted.

Alicia's mother have those behavior she believes are acceptable to people in particular situations and those that she thinks people don't accept in those situation and after apparently feels her daughter is not consistent with these.
