What refers to preconceived ideas of what someone is like that lead to the person's behaving in ways that match the stereotype.?

This phenomenon is known as "stereotype threat," where individuals internalize stereotypes about their social group, leading them to behave in ways that confirm those preconceived notions. It can create a self-fulfilling prophecy, as the pressure to conform to stereotypes may affect one's performance and actions.
