What would not be an example of ‘Stereotyping’?

All homeless people are dangerous
Kids in school on the lunch program are poor
People that get into financial trouble do so because they are irresponsible people
People that drive over the speed limit are more likely to cause an accident

The correct answer is: People that drive over the speed limit are more likely to cause an accident

The correct answer is the statement regarding people who drive over the speed limit and their likelihood of causing an accident. This statement is based on statistical evidence and established research about driving behavior and risk factors associated with speed. It does not make a generalization about a particular group of people based on an inherent characteristic or apply a preconceived notion about individuals solely based on their behavior, which is the essence of stereotyping. In contrast, the other statements involve sweeping generalizations about various groups of people, attributing specific negative traits or socioeconomic statuses to them without acknowledging individual variability. Stereotyping often occurs when we ascribe certain behaviors or characteristics to an entire group based on limited observations or cultural beliefs, rather than on factual or situational evidence.
