To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The first dependent variable, self-concept, was measured by the Piers-Harris Children's Self Concept Scale . This scale contains 80 items in which the individual answers "yes" or "no" to a descriptive statement. The scale is used to assess differences in self-concept among the children. A high score indicates positive self-concept. The second dependent variable, the Burks' Behavior Rating Scales containing 19 categories describing adjustment to school, was used to measure the children's behavio...r according to teacher report. Low scores indicate positive behavior adjustment. The categories rated 61 by the teachers were those identified in previous studies of self- concept as those behaviors that were shown to improve if self-concept were enhanced. In reporting the results, the correlation between behavior and self-concept was not supported. No statistical correlation could be found to exist in the treatment group either before or after the intervention. The children with the lowest self-concept were not necessarily the children with the most problem behaviors.
