Abstract
This research examines the influence of cultural priming on perceptions of the American Dream and Self-Concept among undergraduate psychology and management students. Through controlled experiments involving 100 participants from Loyola University Chicago, we explored how exposure to cultural cues affects academic perspectives. Although not yielding significant results, our study highlights the intricate relationship. It underscores the necessity for larger sample sizes and more robust methodologies. Despite no significant differences observed between groups or majors, our findings emphasize the importance of ongoing exploration in this field, with implications for curriculum development and fostering inclusive learning environments.
