Which of the following is an example of a stereotype? a. all people are equal. b. asian people are smart. c. children learn behavior from their parents. d. teenagers tend to be more independent than young children.

b. Asian people are smart

Explanation:

Stereotypes refer to some characteristics (usually use in a negative way) that are imposed upon some groups of people. They are based on race, nationality, and sexual orientation. Usually they oversimplify these groups based on actual characterisitcs of few members of the them. All of stereotypes are generalizations. They are usually negative because an idea of the pesonality and behaviour of a person is done before actually knowing him/her, resulting sometimes in discrimination.

In this case it is asumed that being asian necessarily implies being smart, we know that smart and dumb people can be found everywhere.
