Question

A black man and a white man with equal IQ scores are told that the test they are about to take will directly measure their intelligence. If ________ becomes a factor for the black man, he is likely to do ________ on the test than the white man will.

Answer 1

stereotype test; worse

Step-by-step explanation:

Stereotype: In psychology, the term "stereotype" is determined as any thought of an individual that is being widely adopted by him or her related to particular types of persons or else specific ways of possessing attitude or behaving that is being intended to constitute an entire group of the given persons or their behavior as a "whole".

Any test which is related to describing the stereotype aspect of an individual or a group displays stereotype threat.

In the question above, the given question represents the stereotype threat and if it becomes a factor then black men would do worse on the test than white men.
