Prejudices can be minimized by

The correct answer is Option (1) → Highlighting individual identity

Highlighting individual identity: Prejudice is often based on generalizations and stereotypes about entire groups. By highlighting individual identity, unique qualities, and personal characteristics, people are seen as individuals rather than just members of a group. This helps to break down stereotypes and reduce the "us vs. them" mentality, thus minimizing prejudice. This is a very effective strategy.

Other options:

• Following self-fulfilling prophecy would reinforce prejudice, not minimize it.

• Translating negative feelings into discrimination is actually an expression of prejudice, not a remedy.

• Having a strong social identity may increase in-group bias, possibly exacerbating prejudice.
