Student Self-Concept Scale

Abstract

The Student Self-Concept Scale (SSCS) is a new measure of self-concept based on self-efficacy theory and subjective task value. A multidimensional measure of self-concept, the SSCS assesses efficacy and outcome expectations across Academic, Social, and Self-Image domains. A unique rating methodology requires students to rate how confident they feel in performing tasks (efficacy expectations), their probable outcomes (outcome expectations), and how important these tasks are for them (subjective task value). The SSCS has been nationally standardized on a sample of 3,586 children in Grades 3 through 12 and there is ample evidence of reliability and validity. A case study illustrating uses of the SSCS is provided.
