Ethnic Status and Adolescent Self-Evaluations: An Extension of Research on Minority Self Esteem.

Jensen, Gary F.; And Others

Social Problems, v30 n2 p226-39 Dec 1982

Analysis of data from four surveys indicated that neither Black nor Mexican-American students suffered from low self-esteem despite the fact that they perceived mistreatment based on their ethnic status. Whether a school was predominantly Black or predominantly White did not affect Blacks' perceived racial mistreatment. (Author/MJL)
