When a passenger gooses an air hostees, who in turn gives him a dirty look, in terms of Max Weber's categories her reaction would be classifiable as

emotional action

social action

rational action

traditional action

Explanation:

- Emotional action: Actions taken based on feelings or emotions rather than logic or social norms.

- Social action: Defined by Weber as actions that take into account the behavior of others and are oriented around a collective social context.

- Rational action: Can be either of two types. Zweckrational is driven by goals, and means are calculated to achieve these goals. Wertrational is driven by values, independent of success.

- Traditional action: Based on habits or customs, actions are taken because they’ve always been done a certain way.

From the options, the action of giving a dirty look due to being goosed is aligned with an instinctive emotional response. This is not calculated or oriented towards societal expectations or customs.

- Answer: Emotional action is most appropriate for this context.
