What is the likely effect on the performance of caucasian students who are told that asian students usually outperform caucasians on the assessment they are taking? a. the caucasian students will most likely study harder for the next exam. b. the caucasian students may perform worse than normal. c. the caucasian students may perform much better than normal. d. the caucasian students will most likely not be affected by the information.

This is a toughie, because all of the answers can be explained. I will put them all into perspective for you:

A.) I would most likely go with because if I were in this situation, with this knowledge I would realize that our teacher is telling us to study harder to do better than the Asian students.

B.) Putting the pressure on these students may make them perform worse, and if you are talking about health class, this can be linked to stress, which in situations may make you even perform better, but generally worse.

C.) I do not see this as being a reasonable answer at all, and I am very sorry if it is because I do not see any way this is legitimate.

D.) This may also be true, because it is just a statistic, and it will not affect directly how you perform, but then again it might not, because it will affect the students mind.

From what I see, I would go with A.).

Although I left you the explanations so its up to you now to decide which is best with this knowledge. Hope I helped at all! Best wishes and good luck
