Which of the following is false about the sense of future obligation embodied in the reciprocity rule? a. it provides a genuine advantage to societies who live by it. b. it allows for the development of sophisticated and coordinated systems of aid, defec. it reduces the tendency of one person to start an exchange relationship with another. d. societies train their members to abide by it

Answer is Option C: It reduces the tendency of one person to start an exchange relationship with another.

Explanation:

Anthropologists and sociologists suggest that human culture believes in the rule of reciprocity. According to this rule of reciprocity, one person tries to repay the other person in case he has provided something to him. This is like repayment of the obligation in future which gives confidence in another that he has not lost anything but will gain in future.  

This sense of future obligation results in continues relationships, transactions which are beneficial to society. Thus,  Option C is the false statement: it reduces tendency of one person to start relationship with another one because it doesn't reduce but increases the tendency.
