Abstract:
A culture-fair scale that was specifically developed to compare six self-concept areas of English and Nigerian (Yoruba) adolescents was utilized in a sample of 686 adolescents. This consisted of 314 white English and 372 Yoruba adolescents whose ages ranged between 14.9 and 10.70 years. The English adolescents were found to have significantly more positive self-concept on most of the 24 scales. The observed results were explained in the light of the sociocultural environments of the two groups of adolescents.
