which of the following describes prejudice distinctly, without discrimination or stereotyping?
experiencing negative emotions towards members of a certain group
making a generalization or assumption about all members of a certain group
treating a person unfairly because they’re part of a certain group

Explanation:

To solve this, we analyze each option:

1. "Experiencing negative emotions towards members of a certain group" – Prejudice is an attitude (including emotions) toward a group. Discrimination is behavioral (acting on prejudice), and stereotyping is generalizing. This option focuses on the attitudinal (emotional) aspect of prejudice, without the behavioral (discrimination) or generalizing (stereotyping) elements.
2. "Making a generalization or assumption about all members of a certain group" – This is stereotyping, not prejudice alone.
3. "Treating a person unfairly because they’re part of a certain group" – This is discrimination (behavioral action based on group membership), not prejudice.

So the first option describes prejudice distinctly.

Answer:

experiencing negative emotions towards members of a certain group
