Stereotype
using attributes commonly associated with a group to an individual.

Projection
occurs when we assign our personal attributes to other individuals. Some call this the “similar-to-me” error.


comments are awaited

Brother:

Actually, I won’t have selected stereotyping if the term “projection” would have been picked from the standard terminology of the concerned subject. Each field has got its distinguishing terminology and in public administration / communication / behavioral studies term “projection” is not used apparently. If you have any reliable book which quotes “projection” in this sense then you are cent per cent right.

Based on the above logic the nearest answer was stereotyping.

Halo effect: When we perceive any body in the context of any single trait /attribute and that single trait / attribute dominates his whole personality perception.

Helicopter factor: Skill to win over the situation. A breakthrough element.
