Abstract


When opportunity is afforded Anglo-American and Spanish-American teachers to respond to questions regarding the relative superiority of pupils of the two racial groups there is a tendency for the Spanish-American teachers to respond "no difference" by greater percentages than "Anglo" teachers. For the 21 traits selected as a basis of comparison, the respective per cents were 50 for the Spanish and 27.5 for the Anglos. The Anglo teachers were more strongly inclined than were the Spanish to claim superiority for pupils of their own race, although the Anglos conceded Spanish superiority in nine of the traits. On the average the Anglos appeared to claim superiority in the traits by more than twice as great a per cent as the Spanish-Americans conceded the traits to the Anglos.
