Question 4 • *CR Speech (ELECTIVE, 1 semester, E6001OX)

Which of the following is an example of a stereotype?

Answer
A
All people are equal.
B
Asian people are smart.
C
Children learn behavior from their parents.
D
Teenagers tend to be more independent than young children.

Explanation

A stereotype is a broad, oversimplified belief about a group of people. “Asian people are smart” assigns the same trait to an entire group, so it is a stereotype. The other statements are general observations or a statement of equality rather than a claim that all members of a group share a trait.
