Prejudice is a baseless and usually negative
attitude toward members of a group. Common
features of prejudice include negative feelings,
stereotyped beliefs, and a tendency to
discriminate against members of the group.
While specific definitions of prejudice given by
social scientists often differ, most agree that it
involves prejudgments (usually negative)
about members of a group.
