Questions: Manusov and Hegde found that having some prior information and positive expectations before interacting with a person from another culture may lead a person to become overconfident about their knowledge, thereby reducing the interaction to small talk. leads to more rigid stereotyping and ending the interaction with more negative outcomes than having no information. leads to greater levels of disappointment and frustration. may lead to more in-depth conversations than having no information.

The answer is: may lead to more in-depth conversations than having no information.

This option suggests that prior information and positive expectations might lead to overconfidence, which could limit the depth of conversation. However, this is not typically supported by research, which often finds that prior knowledge can facilitate deeper engagement.

This option implies that prior information results in negative stereotyping and outcomes. While stereotyping can occur, positive expectations and prior information generally help in reducing negative outcomes by fostering understanding.

This option suggests that prior information and positive expectations result in disappointment. However, research by Manusov and Hegde indicates that positive expectations usually enhance interactions rather than lead to frustration.

This option aligns with the findings of Manusov and Hegde, who suggest that having prior information and positive expectations can facilitate more meaningful and in-depth conversations by providing a foundation for understanding and engagement.
