520 |a The study reported here investigated the various dimensions of actual and inferred self in comparison to the ratings of the subjects by supposed significant others. An inventory of 40 bi-polar traits used extensively in previous research was given to secondary school students to measure their self-concepts and their reflected selves--how they think their teachers rate them, their parents, and their classmates. The teachers and parents were given the same traits for rating the same adolescents. A sample of 120 students was randomly drawn from an urban area secondary school population. There was a minority composition of 36 percent blacks and 18 percent Puerto Ricans among the 60 disadvantaged youths. There was a white majority of 75 percent in the advantaged group. Both disadvantaged and advantaged students indicated positive self-concepts, with the disadvantaged having significantly higher self-concepts than the advantaged youths. For both groups of students, the level of reflected self seems to be a function of the self-concept. The parents' perceptions were very close to all the self-perceptions. The teachers' ratings were at a considerable distance; and even though the teachers rated both advantaged and disadvantaged students positively, the disadvantaged children were rated much lower than the advantaged children.
