Please name 5 examples of indirect stereotyping. Use
the following example to understand how each indirect stereotype
needs to be written for your answer.
Example
A health club only accepts customers who are on the
electoral register. This applies to all customers in the same way.
But Gypsies and Travellers are less likely to be on the electoral
register and therefore they’ll find it more difficult to
join.
This could be indirect discrimination against Gypsies
and Travellers because of the protected characteristic of
race. The rule seems fair, but it has a worse effect on this
particular group of people

Pretend that you are a psychologist who is meeting with a client concerned about her 14-year-old. Your client tells you that she is not sure what to expect, now that her child is becoming a teenager. She asks you, "What is going to happen to my child biologically, psychologically, and socially over the next few years?" She also wants to know how she can build a strong relationship with her teenage child and better cope during these many developments.

Make your claim in one succinct sentence to answer this prompt:
"Tell about a time you failed badly. What did you learn and how did
your behavior change afterward?" Example: "I once addressed the
whole church but froze up; after that I knew I had to prepare
better, so I did."
That sentence is a claim, but an empty one. What needs to follow is
observable, sensory data to substantiate that claim. Example:
"After a youth group trip, I was asked to stand at the podium and
tell the whole church what it meant to me. I looked out on the
hundreds of faces looking at me, and I couldn't think of a thing to
say. Dead silence for over a minute. Finally, the pastor came and
thanked me, and everyone laughed a little. My face burned, and I
stumbled back to my seat. After that, I knew I had to make notes
and practice. Every time I speak to a big group, I scribble notes
furiously on a dozen pieces of paper beforehand and organize my
thoughts. Then I practice--talking to myself in the shower, at the
kitchen sink, in bed before I go to sleep, I have not repeated that
horrible event, and now I like public speaking--making people laugh
and smile." Tell a story (in other
words, provide data) to substantiate your claim. Use the STAR
method: give the Situation, the Task, the Action you took, and the
Result.
