Which term is BEST defined as a set of shared standards for behavior within a group?

• A. Inclusion
• B. Etiquette
• C. Integrity
• D. Fair play

Answer: (B)

Etiquette is about the shared expectations for how people should behave in a group. It sets the norms for polite, respectful interactions, such as listening when others speak, treating teammates and officials with respect, refraining from disruptive behavior, and handling equipment properly. In a physical education setting, etiquette guides everyday conduct—arriving on time, following the coach’s instructions, waiting your turn, applauding good efforts, and using language that maintains a positive environment. Inclusion focuses on belonging, integrity centers on honesty and consistency in values, and fair play emphasizes rules and sportsmanship within competition. Because etiquette specifically encapsulates the shared standards for behavior within a group, it is the best fit.
