摘要
It has been hypothesized that African Americans report lower scores than Caucasians on standardized tests of socioeconomic status. College students were asked to report their family's socioeconomic class. In addition, the Revised Hollingshead four-factor socioeconomic questionnaire was given. Both groups surveyed, African American and Caucasian, underestimated their social class, but there were no differences between the groups.
