Organization of Children's Academic Ability-Related Self-Perceptions.
Simpson, Sharon M.; And Others
Journal of Educational Psychology, v88 n3 p387-96 Sep 1996
How certain ability-related academic self-perceptions are organized in the self-systems of fifth graders was studied with 190 children who completed questionnaires. Confirmatory factor analysis indicates that children differentiate their ability-related perceptions in ways that current models of academic self-perceptions cannot account for fully. (SLD)
