我们回顾了教育中民族和种族差异的范围和来源，重点是心理学理论和研究对理解和纠正这些差异的影响。我们确定了民族和种族差异的3个来源，包括（a）社会阶层差异，（B）基于民族和种族地位的差异待遇，（c）不同民族和种族地位的学生对教育实践的不同反应。对于社会阶层差异，我们质疑了民族和种族差异仅仅反映社会阶层差异的观点，指出社会阶层劣势维持了民族和种族差异。接下来，我们将描述教育不平等的另外两个来源--差别待遇和反应，并提供这两个来源导致教育不平等的教育实践的例子。最后，我们确定了一些策略，干预措施和实践的基础上，心理学的原则和理论，可以用来解决教育差距。
We review the scope and sources of ethnic and racial disparities in education with a focus on the the implications of psychological theory and research for understanding and redressing these disparities. We identify 3 sources of ethnic and racial disparities including (a) social class differences, (b) differential treatment based on ethnic and racial status, and (c) differential responses to educational practices from students across ethnic and racial status. For social class differences, we challenge the notion that ethnic and racial disparities only reflect social class differences and point out that social class disadvantage maintains ethnic and racial disparities. Next we describe the other 2 sources of educational disparities-differential treatment and responses-and provide examples of educational practices with these two sources that contribute to educational disparities. Finally, we identify some strategies, interventions, and practices based in psychological principles and theory that can be used to address educational disparities.
