Believing that all individuals of a particular ethnic group share the same aggressive traits is known as what?

Stereotyping
Appreciating cultural differences
Acculturation
Multiculturation

The correct answer is: Stereotyping

Stereotyping refers to the oversimplified and generalized beliefs about a particular group of people, attributing specific traits or characteristics to all individuals within that group. In this case, believing that all individuals of a particular ethnic group share the same aggressive traits exemplifies stereotyping, as it does not take into account the individuality and diversity within the group. The other terms mentioned do not accurately reflect this concept. Appreciating cultural differences involves recognizing and valuing the unique characteristics of various cultures without making general assumptions. Acculturation refers to the process of cultural change and adaptation that occurs when individuals from one culture come into contact with another, while multiculturation emphasizes the coexistence of multiple cultures within a society. Neither of these concepts involves making broad assumptions about traits based solely on ethnicity, which is why they do not apply in this scenario.
