Answer 1

Answer:

option B                    

Explanation:

The problem of stereotyping is a contextual dilemma in which individuals are or sound at risk of adhering to assumptions of certain social groups. The threat of stereotyping is supposedly a contributory factor to fast-standing holes in academic achievement in race and gender.

This may occur if the behavior of an individual may validate a negative stereotyping, since the stereotyping hazard is assumed to come from a single situation, rather than from the behavioral attributes or features of an individual.

Situation factors that affect the risk of stereotyping might include the difficulty of the task, the faith that perhaps the job measures its capacity, and the significance of the generalization to the job. Individuals show increased rates of implicit bias on activities they want to do well on and when they are irrationally obsessed with the stereotype community.
