Self-Concept, School, and Social Setting: A Comparison of Rural Appalachian and Urban Non-Appalachian Sixth Graders.
Reck, Una Mae Lange
Journal of Educational Research, v74 n1 p49-54 Sep-Oct 1980

Relationships among student self-concept, schools, and the social settings in which they exist need to be examined. (Author/CJ)
