Two-Year Study Relating Adolescents' Self-Concept and Gender Role Perceptions to Achievement and Attitudes Toward Science.
Handley, Herbert M.; Morse, Linda W.
Journal of Research in Science Teaching, v21 n6 p599-607 Sep 1984
Results of this study indicate that students' (N=155) self-concepts and gender role perceptions were related to both achievement and attitudes toward science, but more related to attitudes than achievement. In addition, these relationships became more pronounced for students as they matured from seventh to eighth graders. (Author/JN)
