Cognitive and Emotional Development — Unit test

Question 5 • *GV 2018 - P.E. Health Science - PE201

Which of the following behaviors interfere with the acceptance of cultural diversity?

Answer

Having an interest in seeing that all people are treated equally regardless of their age, socioeconomic background, race, or ethnicity.

Having bias against certain people based on their appearance, forming stereotypes about people based on race, and showing preference to people from one group over another.

Having a dislike of cultural events such as the ballet or opera, preferring to spend time at sporting events, and not having diverse interests.

Having an interest in getting to know people of a particular culture because of family ties, studying the language of that culture, and joining a group that celebrates that culture.

Explanation

Bias, stereotypes, and favoring one group over another prevent people from accepting and treating cultural groups fairly. Choice B describes all three of these behaviors, so it interferes with acceptance of cultural diversity. The other choices describe equal treatment or respectful interest in cultures; disliking certain arts or having narrower interests, as in C, is not itself discrimination.
