The Predictive Validity of Each of Ten Measures of Self-Concept Relative to Teachers' Ratings of Achievement in Mathematics and Reading of Vietnamese Children and of Those from Five Other Ethnic Groups

Oanh, Nguyen Thi; Michael, William B.

Educational and Psychological Measurement, 37, 4, 1005-16, W 77

Ten self concept measures and two achievement tests were examined for fourth and sixth grade Mexican-Americans, Caucasians, Blacks, Vietnamese, other Asian, and pupils of mixed ethnicity. Pupil self-update of self concept revealed negligible relationships with teacher ratings of achievement, although teacher observations of pupil self concept yielded modest correlations with achievement ratings.
