Prejudice refers to preconceived opinions or attitudes that are not based on reason or actual experience. It often involves making unfair judgments or assumptions about individuals or groups based on characteristics such as race, gender, or religion. Prejudice can lead to discrimination and inequality.

Prejudice may come form the heart or mind. Sometimes, people may be prejudice towards someone or something just because he/she don't like the person or thing. Apart from the heart, I think sometimes prejudice may be formed due to people's understanding/misunderstanding towards something. Due to the lack of understand, the wrong impression can be formed and prejudice could result. On the other hand, prejudice could also stem from the understanding of something, which lead to a negative feeling towards the subject, and thus forming prejudice.

Prejudice may be caused by a mere dislike of something without apparent reasons. Prejudice could also be caused by the understanding or misunderstanding of the something. Due to the lack of understanding, the wrong impression can be formed and prejudice could result. On the other hand, prejudice could also stem from the understanding of something, which lead to a negative feeling towards the subject, and thus forming prejudice.

The sources of prejudice in general, or Elisabeth's prejudice against Darcy?
The latter: she disliked him for his conceited and haughty behaviour, so she decided (subconsciously) that she could never like or trust him or credit him with a good deed. Therefore, when she heard Wickam's lies she believed him, expecting nothing better of Mr. Darcy.
