Answer:

The concept illustrated is prejudice.

Explanation:

Prejudice refers to a negative opinion of an individual or collective, without real previous knowledge and usually bordering on racism. It is often based on previous customs and traditions about a certain group.

These opinions generally generate a hostile attitude towards the individual or collective and they are usually based on stereotypes.

One of the main concepts presented throughout the film is the stereotype of each character who <em>belongs to a certain group</em>. As Brian's essay states at the beginning of the film, we have a <em>jock, a princess, a criminal, a basket case and a nerd. </em>

Since these students don't interact with people outside of their circle, their <em>idea of each other is based on </em><em>stereotypes</em> and thus develops into prejudice against them.

Andrew thinks Bender is beneath him, implying that "he doesn't even count" and if he disappeared it wouldn't make a difference since he is a criminal. He is being prejudicial against Bender.

Low context communication can be described as a more __________ approach to sending a message
sweet [91]

Low context communication can be described as a more explicit and direct approach to sending a message.

Low-context communication is explicit and can hardly be inferred. The recipient may understand all the information, even if they are not familiar with the cultural background. Low-context communication is more common in individualist societies. Low-context communicators need to pay special attention to non-verbal messages and gestures, face savings and ingenuity, and building good relationships over time.

With low-context communication, connections can be established relatively quickly. People are expected to ask each other personal questions and be more open about their intentions.

11. Affirmative action programs: a. have been widely adopted by private and government employers. b. have always been optional f
NARA [144]

- Affirmative action programs: <u>c. are controversial because they are seen as reverse discrimination</u>.

- One of the possible legal challenges to affirmative action programs is that they violate the <u>equal protection</u> clause of the <u>Fourteenth</u> Amendment. Because this amendment is at play, any affirmative action program that uses race or ethnicity as a basis for decision making is reviewed by the courts using <u>strict</u> scrutiny.

- Because discrimination law is primarily federal, states are not allowed to pass laws that ban affirmative action or protect classes other than those in the federal laws- <u>this is a false statement</u>.

<u>Explanation</u>:

An affirmative action is a program that uses past discrimination to justify present decisions by giving some sort of consideration to protected status.

Discrimination means treating an individual differently and unfairly because of their race, sex or social status. A discrimination law deals with the incidents of unequal or unfair treatment. People are even discriminated based on disability, genetic makeup and other personal characteristics.

According to <em><u>Fourteenth Amendment</u></em>, the court uses strict analysis to review affirmative action programs.
