Final Answer :
C
Explanation :
Axioms are implicit beliefs about how the world works and concern beliefs about oneself, the social and physical environment, or the spiritual world. This is the definition of axioms provided in social psychology. Option A is incorrect because axioms are not ideas that are unclear, but rather implicit beliefs that are taken for granted. Option B is partially correct as axioms are cultural statements, but they are not always explicitly taught to others. Option D is incorrect as axioms are not limited to beliefs about one's position in the world.
