Summary

Three groups of Portuguese-, Mexican-, and Anglo-American boys and girls (N = 158) from 5th through 8th grade were compared in self-esteem. The results of the chi square test indicated that there were no significant differences between Mexican and Anglo Ss. However, significant differences were observed when the Portuguese Ss were compared to the other two groups. Here it was discovered that Portuguese boys—but not girls—had significantly higher self-esteem than all other Ss.
