The stringency of direct contact is the degree to which people in a social circle are in touch with each other. If there is less stringency of direct contact, then the social circles are more loosely coupled. This means that the people in the social circles are not as closely connected to each other.<\/p>\n<p>Option B is incorrect because it suggests that the social circles are more tightly coupled if there is more stringency of direct contact.
