Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Prejudice is often defined as a negative attitude or belief about a group of people based on preconceived notions or stereotypes. Attitudes are evaluations or emotional reactions toward a particular object, and beliefs are the acceptance or confidence in something as true. Therefore, both attitudes and beliefs can be considered forms of prejudice. Cognition refers to the mental processes involved in acquiring knowledge or understanding and estimation refers to forming an opinion or judgment about something, but neither of these terms fully captures the meaning of prejudice.
