A comparison was made of two sociometric measures of personality integration. Contrary to prediction, the more brief, 6-item PIRT scale was significantly more reliable ( r11 = .84) than the lengthier 30-item ESD scale ( r11 = .74). Also contrary to prediction, neither test was more highly correlated than the other (and therefore more valid) with any of 8 construct-validity measures. It was concluded that the PIRT was the more functional measure and therefore recommended for use in future personality integration research. Earlier results concerning the relationship of personality integration to self-concept and environmental contact, as well as locus of control and locus of evaluation in college-age females, were replicated.

Kajian ini bertujuan melihat sejauhmana gaya kepimpinan ibu bapa menjadi moderator kepada hubungan antara konsep kendiri dengan pencapaian akademik remaja. Untuk mencapai objektif kajian ini, seramai 687 orang remaja yang belajar di tingkatan empat dan lima dari beberapa sekolah menengah kebangsaan di Johor Bahru dipilih sebagai subjek kajian. Instrumen Tennessee Self–Concept Scale yang dibina oleh Fitts dan Indeks Topologi Amalan Didikan oleh Baumrind digunakan untuk tujuan pengumpulan data. Data pencapaian akademik diambil dari peperiksaan akhir. Data yang telah terkumpul dianalisis menggunakan statistik deskriptif kecenderungan memusat untuk menganalisis latar belakang subjek kajian. Analisis kesan pemboleh ubah moderator ke atas hubungan pemboleh ubah bebas dengan pemboleh ubah terikat telah dilakukan menggunakan statistik infrensi regresi pelbagai. Keputusan kajian yang diperolehi menunjukkan gaya kepimpinan authoritarian dan autoritatif ibu bapa didapati hanya bertindak sebagai pengamal secara signifikan kepada hubungan antara konsep kendiri dan pencapaian akademik golongan remaja. Hubungan antara konsep kendiri dengan pencapaian akademik golongan remaja didapati bersyarat kepada gaya kepimpinan permisif ibu bapa.

Descriptive statistic had been used for analysing the research subject demographic’s data. The effects of moderator variable on the relationship of independent and dependent variables are analysed by multivariate regression. The result shows the parents’ authoritarian and autoritative leadership styles as a predictor for adolescent self–concept and academic achievement relationship. Whereas, the relationship of adolescents’ self–concept and academic achievement is conditional to parents’ permissive style leadership.
