Abstract
This study examined the convergent validity of the recently developed short form of Coopersmith's Self-esteem Inventory. The inventory and the Adjective Check List were administered to 172 male and 85 female university students. Correlations of scores on the inventory and the Adjective Check List scales for Self-confidence, Exhibition, and Change displayed a mixed pattern. All three ACL scales were significantly related to the inventory for males, but only the Exhibition scale was significantly related for females. In all instances, the correlations were low, or at best moderate. These findings were not interpreted as demonstrating strong support for the convergent validity of the inventory.
