What is the term used to describe a social group that has interests, social position, and age in common?

  1. Generational

  2. Class

  3. Cohort

  4. Interests

The correct answer is: Cohort

The term used to describe a social group with common interests, social position, and age is called a cohort. Generational (A) refers to a specific group of people born during the same time period, while class (B) refers to a group based on economic or social status. Interests (D) is a too broad of a term and does not specifically refer to age or social position. Cohort (C) is the only answer that covers all the necessary aspects to describe a social group with commonalities.
