Abstract:
The main purpose of the present dissertation was to dismember and reconstruct some aspects of the complex relationship between literacy development and self-concept. Two main principles were included in the general design of the longitudinal investigation. The first principle involved an increasing level of specificity in three steps where the starting point was an overall picture of 700 pupils' reading acquisition and self-concept. The second step was a more detailed analysis with the focus upon 80 pupils. The third step finally entailed intense case-oriented analyses of a few students. The s

Mean differences between LD and NLD groups and the relative importance of social versus academic self-concept in the prediction of GSW were examined. Children with LD evidenced significantly lower self-concept in academic and social domains; however, the two groups did not differ in terms of global self-worth.

<p> This study investigates the different levels of confidence, motivation, and self-concept of several student populations at one community college.

Student self-perceptions and motivations, however, are based on the sum total of experiences a student&rsquo;s experiences.

The aim of the study is to describe and explain changes in the self-concept at various stages during psychiatric rehabilitation. Viewing rehabilitation as a process of resocialisation and using self theories developed from the symbolic interactionist tradition, two groups of hypotheses are developed. The first concerns rehabilitees' expected rejection of the patient-role and acquisition of normal social roles. Concomitant changes in attitudes to self, self-esteem and identification with (other) psychiatric patients are hypothesised, with social milieu as an important variable. The second group

SCC is becoming an increasingly researched topic in relation to the onset and development of psychopathology. To date, there had been no systematic review addressing associations between SCC and psychopathology.

Self-concept and WISC verbal intelligence scores evidenced significant relationships. Additionally, relationships were demonstrated between gains in achievement and higher ratings of self-concept.

Self-concept is the perception that individuals have of themselves across different aspects of life such as academic performance or appearance. The Self-Concept Feedback Loop proposed for this research program conceptualised self-concept as developing through an interactive and iterative process involving social experiences and the cognitive processes of individuals. Through this process, individuals evaluate their behaviour or attributes against their internal standards. Subsequently, this evaluation influences their self-concept.

Contemporary developments in cognitive sciences have uncovered strong correlations between mental events and nervous activity.

The second one is the fundamental differences between conscious experiences and the objects and events in classical physics. This thesis aims t
