Yes - an atheist is obviously motivated by a whole host of things: one of which being an awareness of an atheist identity.

I'm by suggesting that's the sole belief that one is atheist leads to something. Just as the sole belief in God doesn't lead to anything.

But the belief I this identity or knowledge of it can clearly make someone act different. Just as had everything been the same with regards to the exam but I had no knowledge or awareness regarding my lack if knowledge.

Awareness regarding oneself 'being agnostic' is definitely a cogent motivator in people's lives (along side many other things too: hence why people react to this identity differently)
