Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Research has shown that children become more aware of ethnic stereotypes during middle childhood, as they become more attuned to societal messages about race and ethnicity. They may experience negative stereotypes directed towards them, which can impact their self-esteem and academic performance. However, with proper support and guidance, they can learn to challenge and resist these stereotypes. The other options are not supported by research or are based on harmful stereotypes.
