Abstract | Extending research on the Marsh/Shavelson model of self-concept, a set of 14 academic self-concept scales was related to school performance in 8 school subjects for a sample of 507 high school students. Correlations between matching areas of self-concept and achievement (0.45 to 0.70; mean r=.57) were substantial and larger than correlations between non-matching areas. Path models and multitrait-multimethod analyses further demonstrated that self-concept/academic achievement relations were very specific to particular school subjects. Different components of academic self-concept were better differentiated (less correlated) than were the corresponding academic achievement scores. The findings indicate that components of academic self-concepts are more differentiated and relations between academic self-concepts and academic achievements are more content specific than previously assumed. (Four figures illustrate the study, and a nine-item list of references is included.) (Author) |
