The study conducted an empirical investigation on self-concept as related to gender, parental profession and academic achievement among early-adolescent boys and girls in various institutions of Rajshahi city. A total of 160 respondents constituted the sample of the study. A 2×2×2 factorial design involving two levels of gender (boy/girl), two levels of parental profession (service/business) and two levels of academic achievement (high achiever/low achiever) were used. The results showed significantly higher self-concept of girls than boys. In case of academic achievement high achievers expressed significantly more positive self-concept than low achievers. In case of parental service, high achiever boys and high achiever girls expressed significantly more positive self-concept followed by their counterpart low achievers. In case of parental business, it was found that high achiever girls expressed significantly more positive self-concept than low achiever girls. However no significant mean difference was obtained between high achiever boys and low achiever boys in case of parental business. Thus, self-concept of young children was found to be determined by gender, parental profession and academic achievement during early adolescent stage.

Black Adolescent

The Black box in American culture is imposed upon Black boys and girls regarding what they can and cannot do, and who they should and should not be. In the case of Black boys, they can be athletes and thugs, but they cannot be scholars and scientists or engaged fathers and partners. They should be tough, independent, and aggressive, but they should not be vulnerable, relational, and sensitive. The Black box, in other words, constrains the humanity of Black people; it splits Blackness from goodness, and embeds homophobia into the Black male identity. These impositions are not simply about race, as Marcus reveals, but also about gender, sexuality, and social class. When Black boys and young men accommodate to society’s box of intersectional stereotypes, they disconnect from what they know about themselves—that they are thinking and feeling human beings—and disconnect from others within and outside of their communities as well. Over the next few pages, I first describe identity development and then reveal the pathways through which Black boys construct their identities, and conclude with ways to foster resistance to help Black boys stay connected to themselves as well as to others.

Significant difference has been found in the level of occupational aspirations of adolescent boys and girls. Insignificant difference has been found in the level of self concept of adolescent boys and girls.
