Filozof, Eileen M.; Albertin, Helena K.; Jones, Courtney R.; Steme, Sylvia S.; Myers, Leann; McDermott, Robert J.
Journal of School Health, v68 n2 p68-72 Feb 1998
Investigated whether self-esteem preceded various academic behaviors and beliefs among high school students. Surveys of sociodemographics, educational plans, perceived academic progress, relative academic standing, and school and home self-esteem indicated that student academic performance influenced subsequent school and home self-esteem. Self-esteem was much lower in Hispanics and Native Americans than Whites or African Americans. (SM)
