Objective: recognize four common types of stereotypes (gender, age, racial,
and social-class);

Gender, age, racial, and social-class stereotypes are common across cultures.
Studies show that stereotypes for gender and age often exhibit similarities across
different societies. Social class stereotypes also display commonalities, such as the
perception of the rich as cold but competent and the poor as warm but incompetent.
There are strong associations between social class and both race and gender
stereotypes, highlighting the interconnected nature of these biases. These
stereotypes, while prevalent, may not necessarily reflect accurate descriptions of
individuals or groups.

Objective: identify gender, age, racial, and social-class stereotypes in
sentences; and

Gender, age, racial, and social-class stereotypes are prevalent in society. Research
indicates that social class is often stereotypically linked with race and gender. For
example, social class and race share stereotype content, and social class
stereotypes can interact with race in various ways. Additionally, stereotypes of
gender and age show that lower status groups, such as women and elders, gain
warmth but lose competence in stereotypes, while men and middle-aged adults
display the opposite trade-off, being perceived as more competent than warm. These
stereotypes are not necessarily accurate descriptions of individuals or groups but are
ingrained in societal perceptions.

Understanding different perspectives is crucial for developing tolerance as it enables

individuals to appreciate diverse values, behaviors, and lifestyles, fostering mutual
respect and empathy. By embracing varied viewpoints, individuals can gain a deeper
understanding of the world around them. Encouraging empathy skills through
perspective-taking, active listening, and open-mindedness allows for deeper
connections with others, leading to greater understanding and respect for diverse
backgrounds. Empathy, respect, and valuing others' perspectives are essential
components in fostering tolerance and creating a more inclusive environment.
