Janelle Morton · Answer 1

Statement 4 is correct.

Explanation:

Prejudice is a prejudgement. It is not based on experience. It is an attitude towards an individual or group due to their membership of a group for which one has a judgement or opinion about which is based on their judgement. Prejudice can also be positive so it does not always coincide with discriminatory behaviour.
