Explanation:

The generalized belief regarding a specific group of people or category is called the Stereotype. It can be considered as an expectation of people about the individual of every group. As the stereotype is generalized and is considered true for each person of the group it is not so easy to change and it gives birth to prejudices.

It biases the information process about a group so it is very hard to change a belief about a group and its individuals even though there are contradictory beliefs that are present.
