| Summary: | This study attempted to find out whether there were any
significant correlations among student's self-concept, his
aspirat ions and academic achievement. Two measures of self
concept were used, viz., student's self-concept as a learner and teacher's perception of student's self-concept as a learner.
Data on these variables were obtained by means of Waetjen's
'Self-concept As A Learner Scale' and Florida Key (A Scale to infer Learner Self-concept) respectively. Variables of
aspirations pertaining to the students also included educational
aspiration, occupational aspiration, educational expectation,
occupational expectation and parental aspiration for the child.
Data on these variables were collected by using another set of
questionnaire. Academic achievement referred to the students'
performance in the Malaysian Certificate of Education Examination.
A comparison was also made between the boys and girls as well as
the two levels of self-concept in terms of all the variables
under study. |
