Abstract | This document reviews the published empirical literature concerned with the relationship between self concept and academic achievement. The construct of self concept is discussed with regard to common uses, measurement, and experimental development. Descriptions of relevant studies are presented according to their experimental designs or methods of statistical analysis. Correlational analysis of variance, mean differences, and discrepancy studies are reviewed. Also, self concept and achievement research that focuses on ethnic, racial, and socioeconomic status, and sex differences is included. It is concluded that the literature clearly indicates some significant relationship (at least associational) between some aspects of the self and scholastic achievement. The nature of this relationship is unclear, as there is little evidence of causation and there is little uniformity in definition and approaches to measurement of the self concept. (DP) |
