Category: Student Well-Being
Instrument Overview
The SDQP was designed to assess two areas of academic self‐concept (Verbal and Math) and four areas of nonacademic self‐concept (Physical, Appearance, Peers, and Parents). for preschool children (preschool children do not clearly understand General self‐concept items; see also Harter & Pike, 1984) This measure is a downward extension of the SDQ–I (Marsh, Craven, & Debus, 1991), an excellent instrument in terms of psychometric properties and construct validation (see, e.g., Byrne, 1996).
