Answer:

Being Limited; Pervasive

Step-by-step explanation:

Attributing a negative personal outcome to prejudice may be protective of one's self-esteem if the prejudice is being limited because the person in which an unjustified negative attitude is been directed to can manage or control it if they are limited leading to such person to be protective of him/her self esteem. WHILE

It may be harmful to one's overall sense of psychological well-being if the prejudice is pervasive meaning if it is everywhere in such a way that the emotional state of the persons may affect all aspects of the person life and perceptions.

Answer:

.The prejudice is seen as being limited; the prejudice is seen as pervasive

Step-by-step explanation:

Research has shown that prejudice may help one's self esteem if prejudice is limited as one sees it as negatively affecting his personality. However prejudice which is pervasive suggests the individual may be harming himself as it has to do with his psychological well being. Therefore if prejudice isn't limited and not seen as harmful, it may affect one psychologically.
