<span>This group of economies is of interest for a number of reasons. Firstly, they feature great diversity – Singapore has one of the highest per capita incomes in the world, while several of the mainland Southeast Asian states are among the poorest. Brunei is a tiny oil sultanate, while Indonesia is the world’s fourth largest nation. In addition, several of these economies have been consistently among the world’s most open, while others are emerging from a long period of international commercial isolation. Thirdly, the group includes one sizeable country, the Philippines, which for reasons still only poorly understood has consistently under-performed compared to its potential. Four of the economies – Indonesia, Malaysia, Singapore, Thailand – grew extremely quickly in the three decades through to the recent Asian economic crisis.</span>

Answer:
The answer is: C. If she believes that men in fact score better on math tests, this will most likely have a negative effect on her own score.
Explanation:
Stereotype threat is a concept developed in educational studies to analyze the effects of race or gender stereotypes in standarized test results. Educational researchers have problematized the common belief that women or minority students underperform in standarized tests because of genetics or cultural differences, and began seeking for an explanation in other social factors. They have found that stereotypes concerning educational achievement play a fundamental role in educational performance of certain students.
In this case, speaking about gender and math tests, statistics show that boys do perform better on math tests, therefore, the stereotype is that girls are not as capable in math as boys. Research shows that this stereotype acts as a threat when girls take standarized math tests: if they believe that men score better, this stereotype can have a negative effect on their score, and ultimately confirm the stereoytpe.
I wonder whether there were some options, but a good answer is "primary source".
Primary sources are sources from the time when something occurred, as opposed to secondary sources, written down later (for example now by us about ancient Rome).
