Abstract

Self-concept has been established as one of the most important constructs in education with many educational policies around the world advocating the development of positive self-concepts as an important outcome of schooling (e.g., Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development, 2003). Self-concept has also been demonstrated to be an important mediating factor that facilitates the attainment of other desirable psychological, behavioral, and educational outcomes that underpin human potential.
