title: Achievement in physical education and self-concept of Greek students in grades 5 and 6.
abstract: This study investigated the relationship between rated achievement in physical education (low, medium, high) and specific domains of self-concept on the Self-Perception Profile for Children of 303 students in Grades 5 and 6 (M age = 10.9 yr., SD = 0.7). Analysis of variance yielded statistically significant differences between achievement groups on all domains of self-concept except Behavioral Conduct. Students with lower rated achievement in physical education had lower scores on self-concept domains.
