Purpose: The purpose of the study was to investigate gender differences in the levels of self-concept and to identify predictive factors affecting self-concept in Korean high school students.
Methods: The sample for this study was 836 males and 763 female high school students from B city. Data was collected through self-report questionnaires composed of a total of eight instruments. The data was analyzed by independent sample t-test, ANOVA test, Scheffe’s test, Pearson’s correlation, and multiple regression using SPSS/WIN 17.0.
Results: The degree of self-concept was higher in males (79.63±10.98) than females (79.59±10.36). Self-concept showed significant differences in both males and females according to economic status, education of parents, running away, and suicide attempts. Grade level was significant only in males, while academic ranking was significant in females. Self-concept was not statistically different in terms of students’ religion, sexual experience, invalid school absences, and getting into fights. Predictors of self-concept for both genders were depression, impulsiveness, antisocial behavior, family satisfaction, peer support, school adjustment and achievement.
Conclusion: It is necessary to identify different predictors affecting self-concept as well as high risk populations with low self-concept in order to develop and implement appropriate and effective gender specific programs to promote a higher self-concept for today’s youth leading them to a brighter future.
