Stereotypes:

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Stereotypes can be activated without our conscious control through implicit biases. Even individuals who consciously reject stereotypes may still hold implicit biases, which can affect their behavior and judgments. However, it is important to note that stereotypes do not always lead to prejudice or aggressive attitudes, as they are not inherently negative. It is how we use and act on stereotypes that can lead to harmful outcomes. Stereotypes can be consciously controlled with effort and awareness, through education and exposure to diverse perspectives.
