Answer: Stereotype threat refers to the apprehension that minority group members experience when they believe that they might behave in a manner that reinforces or confirms existing stereotypes about their group. The consequences are often that this anxiety or apprehension impedes the performance of these apprehensive minority group members, thus inadvertently reinforcing existing cultural stereotypes.
