Relationship of self-concepts of three-, four-, and five-year-old children with mother, father, and teacher percepts.
Ss were 46 preschool boys and girls, ages three, four, and five years, in a child and family development center. Each child, his mother, father, and teacher were administered, separately, 18 select items from the primary factor in the I Feel-Me Feel self-concept inventory. Results indicated that the childrens' self/social constructs scores were very stable but did not correlate with scores of mother, father, and teacher. The adult percepts of the child's self-concept were highly correlated ( less than .05) among themselves, but they were not in the same system of relationships with the children.
