Question

Assuming that a person going to community college can't afford to go to a four-year college is an example of a) a generalization. b) discrimination. O c) a stereotype. O d) tolerance.

Answer 1

a) generalization

Explanation:

The statement is an example of a generalization. This is because the statement is assumming that all individuals who go to community college are poor. Therefore, this is why they cannot go to a four-year college, and instead go to a community college which is far cheaper. This assumption is being applied to all individuals who attend community college, without any further or more-specific information about each individual, therefore generalizing the entire situation.
