Question

State whether the following statement is True or False with reasons.

Social change can be predicted accurately.

Options

• True

• False

Answer 1

This statement is False.

Reason: Just like it is impossible to predict human behaviour with complete accuracy, it is impossible to predict social change. In most cases, social change is a result of the interaction of multiple factors. It is difficult to forecast the complex interaction between these factors. Further, it may not always be a planned change.
