Attitudes, Self-Esteem, and Learning in Formal and Informal Schools
Groobman, David E.; And Others
Journal of Educational Psychology, 68, 1, 32-5, Feb 76
Traditional measures of academic performance, attitudes, expectations, self-esteem, and learning transfer were compared at formal and informal schools. Informal school students showed more positive attitudes toward school and teachers and greater transfer of training of learning to nonschool settings. No differences were found for academic expectations, self-esteem, or performance. (BJG)
