Résumé anglais Doris Bensimon : The perception of Jewish identity by North African Jews living in France. In a survey on the integration of North African Jews in France, the test « Who-Am-I? » (W.A.I.) was used experimentally. The purpose of this test in the questionnaire was: a) to study whether the people interviewed would spontaneously define themselves as Jews and to see whether the rate of response to this projective and indirect question would be better than to direct questions. b) To determine the salience of ethnic or national character, the people interviewed could define themselves as French as well as Jewish or North African. c) To study the correlation between definition of self as belonging to an ethnic group and other definitions of self. d) To use this test as a pre-survey for further research on Jewish identity. The responses were used for a content analysis. This test permitted a specific social-psychological profile of the different sub-groups in the sample studied. Ethnic and religious identity appear as an aspect of personality of the persons interviewed. These responses enrich and clarify the information obtained by direct questions.
