Explanation:

Analyze the missing visual context

The question asks to identify correct and incorrect statements based on a Pew Research Center survey regarding perceptions of racial treatment. However, the chart/infographic showing the actual data percentages is not visible in the image.

Evaluate statements based on standard Pew Research data

Based on well-known Pew Research Center findings on racial disparities and perceptions of treatment (specifically from their major reports on race in America, such as "Race in America 2019"):

  1. "Black respondents tend to be more likely than White respondents to perceive that Black people are treated less fairly than White people across each of the scenarios presented."
  • This is consistently correct. In all surveyed institutional settings (dealing with police, courts, hiring/pay, mortgages, stores, etc.), a significantly higher percentage of Black respondents report unfair treatment compared to White respondents.
  1. "The largest racial gaps between Black and White respondents is in the perception that Black people are treated less fairly than White people in hiring, pay, and promotions." or "The narrowest gap... was in perceptions of fairness when dealing with the police."
  • Historically, the gap regarding treatment by the police is extremely wide (often one of the largest, not the narrowest).
  • The largest gap is typically found in dealing with the police or the criminal justice system, while areas like applying for a loan/mortgage or hiring also show large gaps but are generally not the narrowest.
  1. "White respondents were most likely to say that Black people are treated less fairly than White people when applying for a loan or mortgage."
  • This is typically incorrect. White respondents are usually most likely to acknowledge unfair treatment in dealing with the police or criminal justice system rather than mortgages.

Determine correct statements from the choices

Without the exact chart, standard Pew Research data confirms:

  • Correct Statement: "Black respondents tend to be more likely than White respondents to perceive that Black people are treated less fairly than White people across each of the scenarios presented."

Answer:

Based on standard Pew Research Center data regarding racial perceptions of fair treatment:

  • Correct Statement:
  • "Black respondents tend to be more likely than White respondents to perceive that Black people are treated less fairly than White people across each of the scenarios presented."
  • Incorrect Statements:
  • "The narrowest gap between White and Black respondents was in perceptions of fairness when dealing with the police."
  • "The largest racial gaps between Black and White respondents is in the perception that Black people are treated less fairly than White people in hiring, pay, and promotions."
  • "White respondents were most likely to say that Black people are treated less fairly than White people when applying for a loan or mortgage."
