D)Stereotype

Explanation:

A stereotype in social psychology is an over-generalized assumption regarding a certain group of people. It is an assumption people may have about each person in a specific group.

A stereotype is an erroneous concept or perception that certain people have about someone or a group based on how they look outside, which may be false or only partially valid.

The textbook defines stereotype as a cluster of characteristics that are associated with all of a specific social group/members. The use of stereotypes is a major way of simplifying our social world; as they reduce the amount of processing that we have to do when we meet the right individual.

Option D => stereotype.

There is a popular saying that says that one should not judge a book by its cover. Sometimes in life we tend to expect more or less from others because we think or believe or we do not believe something about them.
