Abstract
According to reflective appraisal theory, a person's self-statements are largely determined by what that person thinks significant others think about him. In the present study, teachers and peers were identified as significant others and the relationship between self-appraisal and recollections of teacher and peer appraisals was examined. Self-appraisals of subjects appeared to be partially a function of recollected teachers' appraisal; however, no effect was found for peers' appraisal.This publication has 4 references indexed in Scilit:
