The connection among bias,stereotyping,prejudice and discrimination.

Introduction:

Bias means treating one thing better than the other; it comes in many forms which include gender, ethnicity, age, race, etc. The Biased individual believes that they are applying the other people are right without regard for the truth. Bias is the tendency or the preference towards ideology or perspective, the unchecked bias will lead to prejudice. Bias - Inclination towards an individual or a group of individuals which is considered unfair.

Stereotyping refers to those beliefs that are being generalized among certain group communities, irrespective of knowing the fact, that to what extent the belief is correct. In Stereotyping it is being considered that if the generalized view or belief is correct for one person in a group, then it is applicable to other members of that group also.

Prejudice refers to that unfavorable view that a person forms regarding others, such as for an individual, group or things, etc. without having enough knowledge about it. Those views are rarely based on any personal experiences.

Discrimination refers to showing indifferent behavior towards a group of people, or an individual. In discrimination people who are being discriminated against are not given equal rights as other members of the group. Even though these four are different concepts, but they are interrelated with each other as one leads to another.
