Abstract
A measure of perceived popularity was obtained from children scoring high and low on Coopersmith's (1967) recently developed Self-esteem Inventory. High self-esteem children perceived themselves as being significantly more popular ( p < .02) than low self-esteem children. This finding was interpreted as providing some degree of concurrent validity for Coopersmith's test.Keywords
