Differences in the self-concept of male and female monozygotic twins were compared as measured by the Tennessee Sea-Concept Scale. Forty sets of monozygotic twins (20 male, 20 female) were randomly selected for the study. Their responses were scored and the Student t test was computed for each of 11 categories of self-concept to assess differences in female and male scores. The results indicated that female monozygotic twins were more satisfied with their "total" self- concepts including the self-concept categories of identity, behavior, moral-ethical, personal, family and number of deviant scores, when compared with male monozygotic twins.

So, this study aimed at the disclosure of all the ways through which self concept affects the self esteem among university students. The research method applied on the paper was quantitative. The study adopted a Multiple Self Concept Scale byBruce A. Bracken and Rosenberg’s Self- esteems scale (Rosenberg, 1965). The collected data analysis was accomplished statistically using the t-test and coefficient of correlation techniques. A sample of 250 students comprised of 75 males and 175 females was taken from BZU Multan. The inferences of the study conceded that Self Concept has a significant effect on Self esteem among university adults. Besides, the research inquiry brought the fact to light that there is, no doubt, a significant disparity of influences of self concept on self esteem between male and female.

The self-concepts of 10 5-yr.-old girls enrolled in a preballet program at a ballet school in Tulsa, Oklahoma for over one year were measured using the Purdue Self-concept Scale for Preschool Children. Their scores were compared against the scale's normative data for girls of similar age. A one-sample two-tailed t test showed girls' mean was 1 standard deviation above the normative population's mean, a significant difference. Preballet education may be an effective tool for enhancing self-concept, although selective factors may contribute also.

The research was designed to study the Gender related activities i.e. those activities which are stereotypically related to girls and boys and their relationship with the self concept of adolescents. The data was collected from a sample of Adolescents girls and boys between age ranging from (16-20) years belonging to same family. Total number of families included for the data collection was 50. (i.e. Adolescents = 100) An Activity Scale by Terry Honess (1994) was used to see what kind of activities girls and boys are allowed/ accepted to perform. The activity scale had three types of activities, activities and tasks that are considered as male oriented, secondly female oriented and those which are neutral (both male and female are accepted to perform). In order to measure self concept of male and female adolescents the self concept scale (Urdu Adjective Checklist UACL; Ansari et.al. 1982) was used. Results indicated that boys and girls perform gender specific activities. The self concept of girls was significantly low on self concept scale as compared to the boys. Out of nine dimensions of the self concept scale Adolescents’ boys score significantly high on Aggression, Autonomy, Affiliation and Dominance. On the other hand females scored higher on Succorance and Abasement dimensions. These findings show cultural stereotypes in different walks of life. It also reveals that the self concept has a strong relationship with the freedom of movement and expression of young boys and girls. Results are discussed and conclusions are drawn keeping in perspective the cultural expectations and stereo types and its impact on the self concept of young boys and girls.

ntroduction: practising sport contributes tothe reinforcement of important psychological features such as self-perception of competence, especially when participants are children from socially vulnerable contexts. Objective: to compare the socially vulnerablechildren’s self-perception of competence, assisted and unassisted by social sports projects. Method: a total of 235 children (male and female), aged between seven and tenyears, participated in this comparative study. They were divided into two groups: onegroup was formed by 106 children participating in social sports projects;the other was 129 children who did not participate in socialsports projects. The self-perception of competence was assessed by the Brazilian version of the Self-Perception Profile for Children. We used a three-way ANOVA to assess the possible interaction effect between gender, age and group (children assisted and unassisted) in the different dimensions of perceived competence. Results: The children attending sports projects reported higher overall self-worth (F(1.234)) = 6.132, p = 0.014, η2 = 0.026). It was observed that there was an effect of interaction between the variable age x group (F(1.234)) = 6.673, p = 0.010, η2 = 0.029) on the self-perception of social acceptance. There were no significant effects of group on the other dimensions of self-perception of competence. Conclusion: the children participatingin social sports projects showed more self-perception in terms of social acceptance and self-concept compared tonon-participatory children. This project does not help in other dimensions of self-perception.

More than 550,000 people were stroked. This research is a quasi-experimental pre and post one group design. The population in this study were 366 stroke patients who entered the National Stroke Hospital in Bukittinggi with Accidential Sampling sampling techniques. This study was conducted in June 2017 - June 2018. The results of the T-test for family support for stroke patients before and after the implementation of health counseling obtained p-value 0,000 (α≤0,05) which means that there was a significant difference between family support given in stroke patients before and after health education. The T-test results on the self-concept of stroke patients before and after obtaining p-value 0,000 (α≤ 0,05) means that there is a significant difference between the self-concept of stroke patients before and after the research. So it can be concluded that there is an effect of family support on the self-concept of stroke patients who experience paralysis at the Neural Stroke Clinic of Bukittinggi National Stroke Hospital marked by p-value 0,000 (α (0,05). I hope health workers need to provide health education about the care of stroke patients who experience paralysis and about how stroke patients maintain themselves.Kata Kunci     : Family Support; self-concept; stroke patients
