Abstract

Abstract: The pioneer of both stereotype threat and self‐affirmation theory, Claude Steele, provides the concluding piece to the special issue, reflecting on the interplay between theoretical and applied questions raised by this body of research and the contributions—past, present, and potential—of self‐affirmation theory to understanding the societal issue of educational disparities.
