To find the correct answer, we can look at the options provided and eliminate the ones that do not accurately describe nativism.

- "The patriotism that led to America's success in World War I": Nativism refers to a specific belief or ideology, so it does not encompass the broader concept of patriotism in the context of a specific war.
- "The belief in the importance of rights for Native Americans": While the term "Native" is mentioned in this option, nativism does not directly relate to advocating for the rights of Native Americans.
- "The strengthening of national military prowess": Although enhancing military capabilities is a nationalistic concern, it does not reflect the essence of nativism, which focuses on anti-immigrant sentiments.

By process of elimination, the correct answer is:

- "The anti-immigrant feeling that prevailed during the 1920s": This option accurately captures the main idea behind nativism, which was a prevalent anti-immigrant sentiment during the 1920s. Nativism reflects the belief in protecting and prioritizing the interests of established inhabitants over those of newcomers.

Therefore, the correct answer is: the anti-immigrant feeling that prevailed during the 1920s.
