The statement "Role schema can affect the way people perceive themselves," is true.
Role schemas refers to how the norms and expected behaviours of specific roles in society are structured. Role schemas cover both achieved roles – including occupational and professional roles, such as police or dentist – and ascribed roles; to put it simply, those roles over which we have little or not control, including age, gender and race.
The roles and expectations related to these categories are well known as stereotypes.
