Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Social scripts are learned patterns of behavior that guide social interactions. They are especially useful in situations where individuals are uncertain how to act or in unfamiliar social situations. In familiar situations, individuals are more likely to rely on past experiences and previous behavior rather than social scripts. Challenging cultural norms and facing imaginary conflicts are not necessarily situations where individuals would rely on social scripts.
