Kifer, Edward

Evaluation in Education: International Progress, 1, 4, 281-359, 77

Successful and unsuccessful elementary school students are compared with respect to: (1) self-esteem, (2) self-concept of academic ability, (3) intellectual achievement responsibility--locus of control, and (4) the students' concept of home concern and reward for academic achievement. Several self concept tests are described, and bibliographical references are appended. (CTM)
