Question

April's father reads her stories where the heroine is beautiful and the villain is hideous. April's father may unwittingly be helping April develop the

A. contrast effect.
B. physical-attractiveness stereotype.
C. mere exposure prejudice.
D. matching phenomenon.

Answer 1

The correct answer is B. physical-attractiveness stereotype.

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct answer is B. physical-attractiveness stereotype. April's father inadvertently reinforces the notion that physical appearance determines whether someone is a hero or a villain. This perpetuates the stereotype that beautiful people are good and ugly people are bad. By reading stories that consistently depict this pattern, April is likely to internalize and develop a bias based on physical attractiveness.
