Mothers' Predictions of the Self-Concept of Their Normal or Learning-Disabled Children.

Coleman, J. Michael

Journal of Learning Disabilities, v17 n4 p214-17 Apr 1984

Self-concepts of 54 regular class, 48 learning disabled (LD) and 22 students referred for special education were measured, and mothers were asked to rate their child's self-concept. Results revealed minimal differences between self-concept scores of LD and regular class children. Mothers of LD Ss predicted lower self-concepts than their children. (CL)
