Self-Concept and its Relation to Age, Family Structure, and Gender in Head Start Children

Pages 89-94 | Received 02 Dec 1982, Published online: 02 Jul 2010
 

Summary

Ninety-two Head Start children responded to the Piers Preschool Pictorial Self-Concept Scale. The scale scores were highly reliable as evidenced by test-retest and split-half correlations. The relationship between scale scores and age, family structure, or gender was negligible; but responses to a number of scale items differed significantly when subjects were compared by gender or family structure. An exploratory factor analysis yielded four interpretable factors for the scale.
