Question

A high school implements a remedial math program targeted at incoming freshmen who have been labeled as remedial students because they failed previous math classes. Stereotype threat research would predict that this remedial math program might create a self-fulfilling _____ that could cause lower scores on math tests.

Answer 1

Answer:

Prophecy.

Explanation:

Self-fulfilling prophecy is a socio-psychological phenomenon of someone predicting or expecting something, positive or negative, and this prediction (prophecy) or expectation comes true simply because one believes it will, and their resulting behaviors align to fulfill those beliefs, including the act of predicting it (self-fulfilling). This suggests peoples' beliefs influence their actions/behaviors. The principle behind this phenomenon is people create consequences regarding circumstances, people or events, based on their previous knowledge toward that specific subject solely based on one’s interpretation of a certain situation. In this case, if the students failed previous math classes, they will fail again because they believe they are going to.

Answer 2

Self-fulfilling prophecy  

Further explanation

self-fulfilling prophecy is a self-fulfilling prediction is a psychological social phenomenon to predict something and then the prediction becomes reality just because he wants to prove the prediction, so his behavior will prove that belief.

Initially this self-fulfilling prophecy is not only with its predictions, but also its behavior, more precisely related to one's belief in that belief.

for example, a school has a stigma that students who just enter the stamp of students who remedial because they failed in the previous math class. As a result, these students will be lazy in the lesson the worst possibility of these students will drop out of school just because of the stigma. the other case is if the student breaks the stigma that the remedial new student in the class will get the best grade in his class. remember that behavior determines your success.

once you know that beliefs need results, it does not mean you have to think positively. It doesn't matter if you want to think negatively but remember that you are much better at giving constructive behavior

No matter how positive your mind is if you don't take any action it will all be in vain.
