Self-Esteem in Open and Traditional Classrooms.
Klass, Wendi H.; Hodge, Stephen E.
Journal of Educational Psychology, v70 n5 p701-05 Oct 1978
Self-esteem of 350 seventh-grade students from open and traditional elementary schools was measured. The seven open and eight traditional classes represented significantly different treatment groups. No group differences in self-esteem were found, nor were effects found for socioeconomic status, IQ, or sibling position. Girls had higher self-esteem than boys. (Author/RD)
