Structure of Physical Self-Concept: Elite Athletes and Physical Education Students.
Marsh, Herbert W.; And Others
Journal of Educational Psychology, v89 n2 p369-80 Jun 1997
The Physical Self-Description Questionnaire (PSDQ) was administered to 1,514 elite athletes and nonelite high school students. Physical self-concept was higher for the elite athletes, but gender differences were smaller in this group. Results support the usefulness of the PSDQ and extend understanding of self-concept in school settings. (SLD)
