The question is asking which term or concept best describes the individual's time-sense leaning. Haptics refers to nonverbal communication through touch, which is not relevant to the question. Chronemics refers to how people use time and interpret it in different contexts. The individual's prioritization of socializing over punctuality suggests a polychronic time schedule, which values flexible and fluid time management instead of rigid punctuality. Therefore, the best choice is D, chronemics; polychronic.
