Cultural traits are the individual elements of culture, such as beliefs, practices, and symbols. Cultural complexes refer to groups of related cultural traits that together form a more comprehensive aspect of culture, such as a religion or a social system. Cultural differences arise when these traits and complexes vary between societies, leading to distinct ways of life, values, and practices among different cultural groups. Thus, while traits are the building blocks, complexes are configurations of those traits, and differences highlight the diversity among cultures.
The simplest level of culture is Culture Trait, it is an individual tool, act, or belief that is related to a particular situation or need. Individual culture traits combine to form the next level- Culture Complexes which is a cluster of interrelated traits. Culture complexes combine to for larger levels- Culture Patterns. Cultural Patterns is the combination of a number of culture complexes into an interrelated whole.
While cultural diffusion refers to the spread of cultural traits from one society to another, anthropologists study cultural traits by examining how they are interconnected within a particular society. They analyze how different traits interact and influence each other to understand the overall symbolism, meaning, and function of these traits within a cultural context.
