Market research to assess values, attitudes, lifestyles, and tastes of the target market corresponds to which external environment component?

Values, attitudes, lifestyles, and tastes are shaped by culture and social norms, and they drive how consumers perceive products and respond to marketing. This is the sociocultural external environment, which captures those human and cultural factors that influence market behavior. The economic environment focuses on income, prices, and purchasing power; political concerns laws and policies; technological factors cover innovations and new tools. So market research that targets what people value and how they live fits best with the sociocultural environment.
