Is There a Causal Relation Between Self-Concept and Academic Achievement?
Pottebaum, Sheila M.; And Others
Journal of Educational Research, v79 n3 p140-44 Jan-Feb 1986
Longitudinal data from a large sample of high school students were analyzed using a cross-lagged panel correlation design in an attempt to rule out plausible alternative explanations of the causal relationship between self-concept and achievement. Results suggest there may be no causal relationship but an indirect one through other variables. (Author/MT)
