Self-Description Questionnaire: Age and Sex Effects in the Structure and Level of Self-Concept for Preadolescent Children.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Marsh, Herbert W.; And Others – Journal of Educational Psychology, 1984
Factor analyses of responses to the Self-Description Questionnaire (SDQ) by children in grades two to five clearly identified the seven SDQ factors, and correlations among these factors were consistent with Shavelson's model. The results also suggest that these factors become more distinct with age. (Author/BW)

Multidimensional Adolescent Self-Concepts: Their Relationship to Age, Sex, and Academic Measures.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Marsh, Herbert W.; And Others – American Educational Research Journal, 1985
The Self Description Questionnaire II (SDQII) results from 901 Australian secondary school students were factor analyzed and the factors correlated to identify the relationship of self-concept factors to age, sex, and academic achievement. Findings supported the multidimensionality of self-concept and support the construct validity of the SDQII.…

Age and Sex Effects in Multiple Dimensions of Self-Concept: Preadolescence to Early Adulthood.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Marsh, Herbert W. – Journal of Educational Psychology, 1989
This analysis of 12,266 responses to the 3 Self-Description Questionnaires (which measure dimensions of self-concept in preadolescence) examined age and sex effects during preadolescence and early adulthood and alternative operationalizations of the proposition that self-concept becomes more differentiated with age. Well-defined factor structures…

Marsh, Herbert W.; Tracey, Danielle K.; Craven, Rhonda G. – Educational and Psychological Measurement, 2006
Confirmatory factor analysis of responses by 211 preadolescents (M age = 10.25 years,SD = 1.48) with mild intellectual disabilities (MIDs) to the individually administered Self Description Questionnaire I-Individual Administration (SDQI-IA) counters widely cited claims that these children cannot differentiate multiple self-concept factors.

Self-Concepts of Young Children 5 to 8 Years of Age: Measurement and Multidimensional Structure.
Peer reviewed Peer reviewed
Marsh, Herbert W.; And Others – Journal of Educational Psychology, 1991
A new adaptive procedure for assessing multiple dimensions of self-concept for children younger than 8 years was studied with a sample of 501 children from kindergarten through grade 2. Use of the Self-Description Questionnaire with young children was supported by factor analysis. Practical and theoretical implications are discussed. (SLD)
