Did parents, relatives, or other agents of socialization use emotional, psychological, or physical force to shape your thinking and behaviour? Did/do you experience stereotype threat at home, at school, at work? Did this threat cause you to modify your behaviours? What about your occupational choices or the work you do in the home?
