Social adaptation refers to the acceptance and enactment of appropriate behaviors and actions in accordance with the environment and environmental changes. When we say that a person is adapted to others, it means they collaborate with others and adjust themselves to their surroundings. Adaptation becomes significant when we assess the individual’s relationship with society. A person is considered adaptable if they accept logical issues and the logical behaviors of others, and if they cannot adapt to one environment, an alternative environment should be available to them.
