- W39737532 abstract "In their original study, Parish and Necessary (1992) divided a group of 648 second grade students in half. Group A was presented Get Excited About Life self-esteem program (developed by Necessary [1989]) over the next five weeks, while Group B received NO such treatment (i.e., it served as a control group). In the next five weeks, however, the students in Group B were presented the Let's Get Excited About Life program, while Group A received no additional treatment. Through repeated administrations (each five [5] weeks) of the Nonsexist Personal Attribute Inventory for Children, it was revealed that the self-concepts of both groups of students were enhanced after they had been presented with the above mentioned program, and that the self-concept elevations for Group A remained in effect even after five additional weeks with no such treatment. That children's self-concepts were able to be assessed and enhanced at such an early age was thought to be truly noteworthy, especially since few other studies had ever demonstrated similar findings. In a subsequent study by Necessary and Parish (1993), it was further reported that this self-concept enhancement described above endured even after a year with no intervening treatment for either of the groups originally studied by Parish and Necessary (1992). Such long-term effects for children still in their primary school years seemed most encouraging since it seemed likely that as self-concepts were enhanced, so, too, would these children probably benefit social-emotionally and/or academically, as a possible consequence of this enhancement. In another study by Parish and Necessary (1993), a group of 81 second graders were once again divided in half and then presented the Let's Get Excited About Life program in two consecutive five week periods like that described in the original Parish and Necessary (1992) study cited above. What made this study special, however, is that both the students and the students' teachers were surveyed before and after treatment in order to ascertain if the students's self-concepts had been enhanced. As hypothesized, both the students and their teachers detected the self-concept enhancement in them (i.e. the students) after they had been presented the Let's Get Excited About Life program. Such findings even held for the group of students who had received the treatment five weeks prior to the final post treatment assessment. Notably, the studies cited above were limited to students in second grade (although the study by Necessary & Parish [1993] was actually a one-year follow-up of students in third grade, but had received treatment in second grade). The question that needs to be asked is, Would the 'Let's Get Excited About Life' program also work on other grade levels of students, especially in an inner-city school, and would their teachers also discern these changes in their students' self-concept? Method Subjects A total of 100 grade school students (ranging from first through fifth grade), along with their five teachers, voluntarily participated in the present study. These students attended a hub-area school in Atlanta, GA. All of these students, as well as their teachers, were African-Americans, and 90% of these students came from single-parent families. Parental consent was obtained for each student prior to their inclusion in any of the following procedures. Procedures Phase I. The students' teachers administered the Personal Attribute Inventory for Children (PAIC; Parish & Taylor, 1978) to their third, fourth, and fifth grade students, while the Nonsexist Personal Attribute Inventory for Children (NPAIC; Parish & Rankin, 1982) was likewise administered to the first and second grade students. Concurrently, the students' teachers completed a copy of the same checklist that their students completed in order to describe each of their students. For both teachers and students, adjectives were checked on the PAIC and the NPAIC that best described the students in question. …" @default.
