Bias Scenario

Complete the title page, respond to the questions below, save the document per the Walden file format, and upload the document to the XA3003 Bias Scenario area.

1. In the break room conversation, identify at least three statements that clearly demonstrate bias or prejudice. Explain why these statements reflect bias and which specific group or characteristic they target.

2. Point out an instance of subtle bias in the conversation. How does the statement perpetuate stereotypes or assumptions about certain groups? Discuss why these subtle biases might be just as harmful as more overt expressions of bias.

3. The nurses in the scenario have expressed bias in many of their statements. How might the bias of the nurses impact social determinants of health and quality care?

4. Imagine you were present in the break room during this conversation. How would you respond to at least one of the biased statements? Outline at least three strategies you could use to address bias and prejudice constructively, fostering a more inclusive and respectful environment in the workplace.
