Tóm tắt

In his study of role modeling among Asian American and African American students at a predominantly White research university, the author found that although most minority students believed in the importance of a role model, many did not have one. Many also did not feel that their role models had to be from their own race. The author found no evidence that the presence or absence of a role model was related to academic performance.
