Which of the following statements accurately describes assumptions and stereotypes?

A) Assumptions and stereotypes may come from experiences with previous clients.
B) The mainstream media provide accurate portrayals of most client groups.
C) To move beyond stereotypes, interns should first deny their existence and bury them.
D) Interns tend to assume that they have much in common with their clients.

Assumptions and stereotypes can stem from past experiences with certain client groups. It is important to recognize and address these biases in order to provide effective and non-judgmental care. Option B is incorrect as the mainstream media often perpetuate stereotypes and do not provide accurate portrayals of marginalized communities. Option C is also incorrect as denying the existence of stereotypes will not address the issue, and may even reinforce them. Option D may or may not be accurate for individual interns, but it is not a general statement that applies to all interns.
