Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Ethnocentrism is the tendency to judge other cultures and behaviors according to the standards and values of one's own culture. It can lead to stereotypes and prejudice towards other cultures. While it may be natural to have pride in one's own culture (option B), it is not the definition of ethnocentrism. It is also not a useful tool for successful decision-making (option C) as it can lead to biased judgments and hinder understanding of other cultures. Option A is incorrect as ethnocentrism actually perpetuates stereotyping rather than resisting it.
