This study investigated the relationship between reading achievement, self-concept and visual perception of 100 randomly selected junior high school pupils. Findings indicatd that: (1) both two- and three-dimensional perception had significant relationships with reading at the .001 level; (2) a significant relationship existed between reading and two of the self-concept components; and (3) there was a significant relationship between two-dimensional perception and eight of the self-concept components. Investigators concluded that there is a significant relationship between self-concept and reading and hypothesized that in some instances reading disability might well be a conditioned attitude. It was recommended that further investigations be designed to explore the causal relationship between self-concept, perception and reading.

RELATIONSHIP USING LEARNING MEDIA WITH SELF CONCEPTThe aim of this study is to determine the relationship between the use of learning media and self-concept. The research approach uses quantitative with correlational study methods. The study data was obtained using a questionnaire tool for both variables. The validity test of the use of instructional media and self-concept tools was calculated using the Pearson Product Moment formula and the reliability coefficient was calculated using the Cronbach Alpha formula. The population consisted of VA, VB and VC students from the District 2 Primary School. A sample of 48 students was obtained using the Taro Yamane formula. Testing the analysis requirements in the form of normality tests (Liliefors). After the normality test is performed, a homogeneity test is then performed (Fisher). Data declared normal and homogeneous are used to test hypotheses, the results of which indicate that the use of instructional media has a positive and significant relationship with self-concept. Statistical analysis yields a correlation coefficient (rxy) of 0.69, which means that the relationship level is classified as strong and a count of 8.80 is higher than ttable with a significant level of 0.05 of 2.021, meaning significant. It can therefore be concluded that there is a positive and significant relationship between the use of instructional media and the self-concepts of students.

El ajuste escolar es un factor prioritario a considerar para comprender y dar una respuesta psicoeducativa a los crecientes problemas de fracaso escolar, absentismo y convivencia en las aulas. Por su parte, el autoconcepto juega un papel decisivo en el ajuste del alumnado. Los objetivos de este estudio son analizar la relación entre las dimensiones académica y global del autoconcepto y las escalas del ajuste escolar; examinar las diferencias en el ajuste escolar, así como en el autoconcepto académico y global, según el sexo y la edad del alumnado; y comprobar la capacidad explicativa del dominio académico y global del autoconcepto sobre el ajuste escolar. En el estudio participan 1468 estudiantes entre 12 y 17 años (M= 14.03; D.T.= 1.36), 51% mujeres y 49% hombres. Se emplean la Escala Breve de Ajuste Escolar –EBAE– y el Cuestionario de Autoconcepto Dimensional –AUDIM–. El autoconcepto mantiene relaciones significativas con el ajuste escolar. Por otra parte, las mujeres informan de un mayor ajuste escolar y autoconcepto académico verbal, mientras que los hombres perciben un mayor autoconcepto académico matemático y global. Además, el autoconcepto y el ajuste escolar son mayores en la adolescencia temprana que en la adolescencia media. Por último, el autoconcepto académico y global tienen una capacidad predictiva grande-moderada sobre las dimensiones del ajuste escolar, siendo destacable la influencia del autoconcepto académico sobre el rendimiento escolar. School Adjustment is considered to be an outstanding factor in order to understand and give a pshycoeducational response to the growing problems of academic failure, truancy and cohabitation in the classroom. Self-concept has likewise an essential role in students’adjustment. The aims of this study are to analyse the relationship among Academic and Global dimensions of Self-concept and School Adjustment’s scales; to examine the differences in School Adjustment, as well as in Academic and Global Self-concept, according to the students’gender and age; and to check predictive ability of Academic and Global Self-concept on School Adjustment. 1468 students participated in this studybetween 11 and 17 years of age (M=14.03; SD= 1.36), 51% women and 49% men. The Brief Scale of School Adjustment (EBAE) and the Multidimensional Self-Concept Questionnaire (AUDIM) were implemented. The School Adjustment keeps significant relationships with the Self-concept. Furthermore, women have been considered to have a larger School Adjustment and Academic Self-concept in oral skills, while men perceive better the Mathematic and Global Self-concept. Besides, the Self-concept and the School Adjustment are larger in the early adolescence than in the middle adolescence. Finally, the Academic and Global Self-concept have a high and moderate predictive ability about the School Adjustment’s dimensions, and the Academic Self-concept a remarkable influence regarding the academic achievement.

The purpose of this research was to determine the relationship between self-concept and tendency to become bully victim in early adolescents. Bullying is an act in which a person or group try to hurt, damage, oppress or do other negative actions to someone who is weak. Bullying occurs repeatedly time to time and will continue to occur if there is someone who feels having power (called as actors) and someone who feels weak (called as victims). Those could happen due to the imbalance in their development of self-concept. This study is a survey research. The subjects were 179 students in Junior High School in Surabaya (67 males and 112 females) with age ranged from 12 to 14 years old. Data were collected using the Self-Concept Questionnaire (20 items) and Bully Victim Questionnaire (16 items). Data were analyzed using Pearson's product moment. The results of this study found a negative correlation between self-concept and the tendency to be bully victim in early adolescence (r= -.772; p< .001). Negative correlation had meaning that adolescents with positive self-concept were less vulnerable to be bully victim, while adolescents with negative self-concept would tend to be bully victim. It is recommended for further research to employ better methods, theories and measuring tools.

The learning process has a benchmark that refers to the achievements experienced by students, namely learning outcomes. Learning outcomes achieved by students have two influencing factors namely internal and external factors. These two factors that influence learning outcomes are interest and learning difficulties. The results of observations on the learning outcomes of students of SMPN 11 Padang in science are still low. Students say that science learning are numerous and difficult. The existence of students who score below the average and the lack of student interest shows the student's interest in learning in science is less and it can be assumed that students have difficulty learning science. Research is a descriptive study. Research uses a correlational study approach. Research subjects consisted of 30 people in class VIII G of SMP 11 Padang. To find out the relationship between variables expressed by the correlation coefficient, data analysis techniques are used using the Sperman Rank correlation. The correlation between student interest and learning outcomes is weak, that is -0.32, the contribution of 10.24% does not have a significant relationship. There is a significant relationship between learning difficulties and learning outcomes, medium criteria w ith a value of 0.59, contribution value is 34.81%. Correlation criteria for interests and difficulties with strong learning outcomes with a value of 0.66 and a contribution of 43.56%, as well as a significant relationship between variables. The results of the relationship between learning interest and learning difficulties with learning outcomes are strong and each variable has a significantly relationship.
