The relationship between self-esteem and language disordered children

Edel McAndrew

Psychology Department, Mayo Community Care, County Mayo, mcandfam{at}anu.ie

This study examined the proposition that the high level of emotional and behavioural problems in language disordered children was due to their low self-esteem, this being due to the difficulties the children encountered because of their language disorder. The Piers-Harris Children’s Self-Concept Scale, Coopersmith Inventory (school form) and the Eysenck Personality Questionnaire (Junior EPQ) were administered to 14 children. The results of the present study did not find significant differences between the mean scores of the language-disordered children and the mean of the standardization samples on either the Piers-Harris or the Coopersmith questionnaires.
