Question

True or false: Research shows that negative self-evaluations for males occur from idealized images of financial success found in marketing materials.

True
False

Answer 1

The statement is false. Research does not show that negative self-evaluations for males occur from idealized images of financial success found in marketing materials.

Step-by-step explanation:

The statement that research shows that negative self-evaluations for males occur from idealized images of financial success found in marketing materials is false. The research conducted by Spencer, Dupree, and Hartmann (1997) with African American adolescent boys and girls found that negative learning attitudes were predicted by unpopularity with peers for both genders. Additionally, for boys, more stress predicted a less negative attitude toward learning. Their study focused on the school environment and how others' perceptions and attitudes influenced self-evaluations, rather than idealized images of financial success.
