| Abstract | This study examined the self-concept of elementary school children enrolled in grades 2, 4, 6, and 8 of schools in the West African country of Gambia. Measures of self-concept in the areas of physical maturity, peer relations, academic success, and school adaptiveness were obtained from 156 students. The mean scores of the students were subjected to a series of two-way analyses of variance. Independent variables were sex and grade level. For the dependent variables, each area of self-concept was subdivided into three subsets: self-knowledge, self-esteem, and self-ideal. Results indicated that grade level was the most important variable in the self-concept development of the students, a finding supporting previous studies. The effect of sex, however minimal, was sometimes associated with grade level, a result which contradicts findings on children of Western culture which indicate that the role of sex is negligible. Overall, analyses suggest that (1) the patterns of self-concept development among Gambian school children were different according to the self-concept area being tested, and (2) the developmental experiences of school children in Gambia were similar to those of students in Western culture.
