Young lilah is taken to a family dinner and she meets an uncle who she has never met before. as he reaches to her for a hug, lilah looks to her mother with an uncertain look on her face. as she sees her mother nodding and smiling, lilah looks back to the uncle and gives him a warm hug. lilah has used to determine how to act in this situation.

Social referencing

Lilah has used social referencing to determine how to act in this situation.

The reason why "social referencing" would be the correct answer is because in this situation, Lilah used her to decide how she should act in that particular situation.

Social referencing is when a kid/child/infant uses an adult to decide how they should behave during situations. This is very common for kids to do, since they're very dependent on someone.

In this case, Lilah is using her mother to help her decide how she should react, or respond, to meeting an uncle she never met before. She used her as a "reference" by looking at her mom, when she saw her mom had a smile and nodded, she responded with the same feelings that her mother had.

If it wasn't for her mother, Lilah would've acted differently when she hugs her uncle. She could've cried, she could've been uncertain, but that was not the case because she used social referencing to help her decide how to respond/react to the situation
