Howerton, D. Lynn; Enger, John M.; Cobbs, Charles R. – Research in the Schools, 1994
This pilot study investigated self-esteem and achievement of 42 black male rural junior high school students identified as at-risk by their teachers. Self-esteem was significantly related to achievement test composite scores and science and mathematics subtests, as well as to average grade and English and social studies grades. (SLD)
