It's fun, quick,...and all responses are kept confidential.
The only way you fail is if you don't take the quiz. (Lie, and you'll still get a "Pass.").
Come on...
Based on your own personal experience, which behavior below do you commonly find in the following racial, ethnic, socio-economic, political, geographical, or religious groups? In which group, or groups, would you find it most likely to find these behaviors?
We not want to stereotype others* but on the other hand, we do not wish to be blind, either, to patterns of behavior that may actually describe cultural differences, whatever the possible historical or sociological explanation might be.
"I can look down on you (roll my eyes, stare, curl my lip, assume innate or moral superiority, etc.), be belligerent (you've pissed me off, and you have it coming to you), or treat you rudely (yell at you, "tell you off," act as if you owed them something), but you cannot do the same to me."
(A) Caucasian-Americans; (B) Hispanics; (C) Asian-Americans; (D)Asians; (E) African-Americans; (F) African or Caribbean immigrants; (G) Jews; (H) Native Americans; (I) Republicans; (J) people with annual incomes $100,000 or more; (K) people with incomes below $20,000; (L) urban dwellers; (M) suburbanites (N) Southerners; (O) North-easterners; (P) Other
* Stereotypes, contrary to popular belief, have an element of truth. But they are only a partial view. For example, Asian women are often stereotyped as graceful, slender, pliant. They are not often stereotyped as clumsy, fat, loud, belligerent. A stereotype would not exist if they were not an element (or more) of truth to it.
The question is how a stereotype is used. They should be used with caution and not be blindly used and not allow us to see the individual human being.

Your answer, whatever you find, is important and should not depend on what others expect you to say.
