Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Stereotypes do not explain causation; they are oversimplified beliefs about a group of people. The fact that people with sub-Saharan ancestry held top running records and their representation in the global population does not validate stereotypes as a causal explanation for their achievements. Factors such as genetics, training, environment, and individual effort play a significant role in athletic success.
