What are 4 type of people acorrding to Robert merton?

Answer 1

Robert Merton identified four types of individuals in relation to society's goals and means: conformists, who accept both societal goals and legitimate means; innovators, who accept societal goals but reject legitimate means, often finding alternative paths to success; ritualists, who abandon societal goals but adhere strictly to the means; and rebels, who reject both established goals and means, seeking to create new ones. These categories help to explain how individuals adapt to the pressures of society.
