Journal of Educational Psychology, v89 n4 p752-59 Dec 1997

Stader (1996) of children's responses to four ability-related self-perceptions shows how applying a construct validity approach leads to conclusions opposed to theirs but still consistent with previous theory and research on academic self-concept.
