c. a negative opinion of others based on their group membership.

  • Prejudice is an unfair and unreasonable opinion or feeling, especially when formed without enough thought or knowledge. It involves making judgments about individuals based on their membership in a particular group, whether it's their race, gender, sexual orientation, religion, nationality, or any other characteristic.
  • Prejudice is often based on stereotypes and can lead to discrimination, which is negative or harmful action toward a person or group.
