The correct answer is the scapegoat theory.

The scapegoat theory claims that prejudice is a result of frustration and aggression being targeted at certain groups of people who are unrelated to the cause of frustration. Scapegoating is related to prejudice because individuals blaming others have negative and untrue beliefs and feelings towards to the group being blamed.
