RE: The Development of Racial Bias

in #psychology7 years ago

Generalizations can be accurate, as much as they can be false. They are useful guides for expected outcomes based on previous situations of similar nature. They can accurately describe. People in one area, under a different culture, norms and tradition will act according to generalized behaviors from common ideas, that differ from others. The closer you get to individual objects, things, or people, the less effect a generalization can have, as the specifics are from where the general is formed, but the general has the commonality of the specific, the universal categorization has the commonality that associates the individual.

Thanks for the feedback ;)
