    • A. Prejudice

    • B. Stereotype

    • C. Discrimination

    • D. None of the above

    Correct Answer
    A. C. Discrimination
    Explanation
    The given scenario of a 60-year-old man being denied a promotion at work because of his age is an example of discrimination. Discrimination refers to treating someone unfairly or unequally based on certain characteristics such as age, race, gender, or disability. In this case, the man's age was the basis for denying him the promotion, which is a clear act of discrimination. Prejudice refers to preconceived opinions or attitudes without any basis, while stereotype refers to generalizations about a group of people. Neither of these terms accurately describes the situation presented.

    • A. Discrimination

    • B. Prejudice

    • C. Spending time with people that are different than you

    • D. Stereotype

    • E. Only a, b, and d

    • F. None of the above

    Correct Answer
    A. E. Only a, b, and d
    Explanation
    Discrimination, prejudice, and stereotypes can all disrupt respecting diversity. Discrimination involves treating people unfairly based on their characteristics or beliefs, which goes against the principle of diversity. Prejudice is a preconceived negative opinion or attitude towards a particular group, which can lead to biased treatment and hinder acceptance of diversity. Stereotypes are oversimplified and generalized beliefs about a group of people, which can perpetuate biases and hinder understanding and appreciation of individual differences. Therefore, options A, B, and D are the correct choices as they all have the potential to disrupt respecting diversity.

    A. G. All of the Above
    Explanation
    All of the options listed (A, B, C, D, E, F) are ways to decrease prejudice. Being aware of your own prejudice helps to recognize and challenge biased thoughts and behaviors. Avoiding making or being around people who make discriminatory jokes helps to create a more inclusive and respectful environment. Making an effort to spend time with diverse groups of people promotes understanding and empathy. Not teasing, laughing, or rolling your eyes at others shows respect and avoids perpetuating stereotypes. Getting to know people and respecting their choices fosters acceptance and reduces prejudice. Contacting a supervisor if uncomfortable with someone's behavior in the workplace addresses and addresses any discriminatory actions. Therefore, the correct answer is G. All of the Above.
