This study examines whether humility is associated with gender, education, and racial/ethnic group. We also investigate how social relations mediate these links across the life course. Data are from the Detroit Community Study, which focused on three prominent groups in the area: Arab Americans, African Americans, and White Americans (N=907). Findings indicate that Arab Americans and African Americans report greater humility than Whites. Further, social relations partially mediate this association, but only among older Arab Americans. Findings are discussed within a developmental science perspective to consider the relational aspects of the individual and context over the life course.

这项研究检查了谦卑是否与性别，教育程度以及种族/族裔群体有关。我们还将研究社会关系如何在生活过程中调解这些联系。数据来自底特律社区研究，该研究集中在该地区的三个主要群体：阿拉伯裔美国人，非裔美国人和白人（N = 907）。调查结果表明，阿拉伯裔美国人和非裔美国人报告的谦卑感高于白人。此外，社会关系部分地介导了这种联系，但仅在年长的阿拉伯美国人中间。在发展科学的视角下讨论发现，以考虑人生过程中个人与环境的关系。
