Self-concept and self-esteem in developmental dyslexia

Self-concept and self-esteem in two groups of dyslexic children (mainstream placement and SpLD unit placement, total N=63) were examined. Interviews and a questionnaire (the SDQ-1) were utilised, giving a mix of qualitative and quantitative data. Where appropriate, a control group of 57 children without learning difficulties was assimilated into the research design. The main findings were that the presence of dyslexia produced marked effects on the self-concept and self-esteem of children, although this was more apparent in the participants attending mainstream schools than those in SpLD units. The qualitative data revealed that children with dyslexia felt isolated and excluded in their schools, and that, typically, up to half were regularly teased or bullied. The findings were related to self-concept and self-esteem theory, and current educational practice. The limitations in terms of research design and analysis were also noted.     

Self-concept, self-esteem and academic achievement: strategies for maintaining self-esteem in students experiencing academic failure

Previous research into the relationship between self-esteem and academic achievement shows that despite differences in academic self-evaluation, students’ global self-representations do not differ as a result of their grades at school. In this study, we will analyse the strategies that underachievers used to maintain their self-esteem at an acceptable level. The participants were 955 adolescents in the 7th, 9th and 11th grades at four secondary schools in Lisbon. Three hundred fifty-two of these students had retaken a year at least once in their school careers, whilst 603 had never done so. We collected the data using both a self-concept scale and a scale for evaluating attitudes towards school. Results show that self-esteem is maintained through positive self-representations in non-academic facets of self-concept and/or by devaluing school-related competences. They also show that younger students are less likely to maintain self-esteem by devaluing the school experience.

Self-concept development and educational degree attainment

The present study explores changes in the academic, social, and artistic self-concept of college students over a nine-year period. While the findings demonstrate a positive relationship between the educational degree attainment levels of students and their formation of a more healthy self-concept, the findings further indicate that the relationship is not consistent for males and females. In general, the findings suggest that the collegiate experience does not diminish self-concept gender differences that exist at the time of matriculation. The degree to which changes in students' self-concept is related to selected aspects of their collegiate experience and characteristics of their undergraduate institutions is also explored. The findings indicate that changes in students' self-concept is related to their level of social and academic integration during their undergraduate careers and to the size and selectivity of colleges they attend. The implications of these findings for enhancing students' self-concept during the college years are discussed.     

Self-concept,Attributional Style and Depression

The purpose of the present study was to investigate how self-concept and attributional style are related to depression in a student group. On the basis of an inventory, 166 advanced teacher students were scored on general and academic self-esteem, attribution for positive and negative events, and depression. The two self-esteem variables were found to constitute important predictors of depression, while the contributions of the attributional variables were of minor importance. In addition, pessimistic attributions to both positive and negative events resulted in higher depression than pessimistic attributions to either kind of events, and to neither kind of events. Finally, factor analysis resulted in interpretable solutions.     

Teachers' self-esteem and self-efficacy

A web-based questionnaire was sent to all elementary and middle school teachers in Iceland. The population list, with e-mail addresses, was obtained from the teaching union. The teachers were asked to indicate their major, as well as their experience in teaching Icelandic as classroom teachers or subject teachers. They then rated their competence in teaching Icelandic on a scale from 1–10. Responses were received from 1033 elementary and middle school teachers. Of all teachers, 83.9% had taught Icelandic as classroom teachers and 37.3% had taught Icelandic as subject teachers. All teachers rated their competence as high. Statistically, Icelandic majors and older teachers were significantly more efficacious than others in teaching Icelandic. Those with the lowest competence ratings in teaching Icelandic were sports and home studies majors. However, teachers from all majors had taught Icelandic as classroom teachers, and a significant number of them had taught Icelandic as a subject.     

心理治疗中自我概念的嬗变及其意义

在不同的心理治疗理论中,自我概念具有各自特殊的含义和意义。弗洛伊德将自我视作人格中唯一能行使认识功能的部分,也是心理问题的主要责任者;伯恩将自我视作人格的主体,并将其分为父母自我、成人自我、儿童自我三部分,提出三者关系状况决定了心理健康的状况;罗杰斯将自我放在人的主观经验世界的核心地位,提出自发、自由的自我是健康的自我;皮尔斯提出了心理界限和自我觉察力概念,为健康自我增加了自觉之内涵。     

On the Correlation between Self-concept and Educational Success

Ⅰ. Introduction “If the school is sensitive to the problems of less successful learners, if it takes steps within its organization, methodology and curriculum to meet their needs, and if individual progress is emphasized rather than achievement of norms and examination successes, the number of individuals whose learning difficulties become special educational needs may be minimized”(Fish, 1985,p26). As is suggested in this quotation, the 1980s witnessed signifi

成人的自我概念及其对个体学习的影响

与儿童群体不同,成人的认知、能力差异对个体学习的影响趋于减弱,而其人格因素所起的作用却更显突出。在成人学习研究方面,自我概念作为个体人格发展的核心已成为成人教育研究者重点关注的对象。成人个体成熟的自我概念,意味着他们具有深入自我的觉察、趋向一致的自我认同和积极的调控能力,而这些特质对调动成人内在的学习动机、提升学习效能和促成学习目标实现,发挥着积极的促进作用。     

问题学生的自我概念研究

本研究以初一至初三年级197名问题学生和136名普通学生为对象,对问题学生的自我概念及其相关因素进行了研究。结果表明:(1)问题学生的自我概念除初三学生外一般比普通学生低,这与普通学生的自我概念在初三显著降低有关;(2)问题学生的自我概念不存在显著的年级或年龄差异,而普通学生的自我概念表现出明显的年级差异和年龄效应;(3)问题学生的父母教养方式和负性生活事件所带来的应激与其自我概念的发展存在极其显著的相关。而问题学生的负性生活事件应激强度显著高于普通学生;(4)问题学生的自我概念可以显著预测其心理健康水平,提示自我概念的发展水平是影响问题学生心理健康状况的重要因素之一。
