O estudo sobre o qual podem ler em

demonstra o valor que tem a consciência étnica, e racial, no desempenho individual, como forma de fortalecimento dos seus propósitos e do seu papel e lugar no mundo.


Um excerto:

A third study included interviews of 524 Israeli high school students of Palestinian or Arab ethnic origin. They were asked to complete a math task and to describe their racial identity. Students who did not take race into their self-concept or believed they were only part of the in-group reduced their efforts, while students who felt as if they belonged in the in-group and larger society did not.
