Answer: a) is an example of stereotype threat

Explanation:

A stereotype threat is <em>when people might conform to stereotypes about their social groups</em> (in this case, the social group of "older people").

Conforming to this stereotype can be risky, because it might cause certain social groups to <em>"underperform"</em>, to perform less than their actual potential. It's good that Mrs. Nguyen has formed her own opinion about getting older and <em>she hasn't submitted to the general perception of about "getting older". </em>
