Detailed explanation-1: -Prejudice and discrimination can affect people’s opportunities, their social resources, self-worth and motivation, and their engagement with wider society. Moreover, perceptions of equality and inequality are themselves drivers of further discrimination.
Detailed explanation-2: -A person’s upbringing may cause them to become prejudiced. If parents had prejudices of their own, there is a chance that these opinions will be passed on to the next generation. One bad experience with a person from a particular group can cause a person to think of all people from that group in the same way.
Detailed explanation-3: -As such, and consistent with the literature on attitudes more broadly, prejudice is seen to have three components: cognitive, affective, and behavioral.
