Children's Concepts of Ability, Effort, and Conduct.
Blumenfeld, Phyllis C.; And Others
American Educational Research Journal, v23 n1 p95-104 Spr 1986
Determinants of children's self-perceptions of ability were assessed in 158 second and sixth graders by examining intercorrelations among self-ratings of ability, effort, and conduct and by exploring criteria used for these judgments. Results suggest that children's judgments of ability, effort, and conduct are interrelated but distinguishable. (Author/LMO)
