Abstract Details

2007, Specialist in Education, Miami University, Educational Psychology.
Self-perception of school-aged students has a strong interaction with their academic achievement, social relationship, and emotional well-being. The present study explores the grade, gender, and cultural difference in self-perception among Chinese and American students using a Cultural-Probe-Approach self-perception instrument that incorporates values emphasized by both American and Chinese cultures. Self-report data were acquired from 77 American students and 510 Chinese students from grades 4, 6, 8, and 10. The results display some revealing grade, gender, and cultural differences in students’ self-perception at overall and domain-specific levels. Implications for education and mental health services are also discussed.
