For example, NAEP hasfound that African Americans performed worse than White students on measures of engineeringand technology literacy.[40] Rather than blaming individuals for this finding (e.g., by saying thatthe individual students were less motivated to study engineering) researchers can look at systemsfactors, such as the characteristics of the schools that African Americans attend, whether or notthe tasks on the engineering assessment were culturally congruent
