Beschreibung

Stereotypes are beliefs regarding the traits, attributes, and behaviors of members of certain groups. They are not only beliefs, but also theories about how and why certain attributes go together. Furthermore, stereotypes can have both negative and positive connotations, although it is more likely to meet negative ones. Stereotypes might be targeted to any social group and, indeed, the content of social stereotypes have changed across time and geographical region.
