Abstract/Summary

This study attempted to determine the level of self-concept of the seventh semester teacher trainees of Sanata Dharma, Indonesia, school year 1984-1985. Moreover, it also sought to find out if their self-concept is a function of sex, type of department, interpersonal communication skills, perception of teacher behavior, and teachers' self-concept across departments. Specifically, this study attempted to answer the following questions: 1. In what aspects of the self-concept do the students rate relatively low? 2. Is there a significant difference in self-concept: a. between female and male students? b. among students of the different departments? c. between students and teachers? 3. Is there a significant correlation between the students's self-concept and: a. their interpersonal communication skills? b. their perception of teachers behavior? c. the self-concept of teachers across departments? The researcher employed the descriptive research method to identify the students's self-concept, to compare the self-concept of groups (female versus male students, students of the different departments, students versus teachers) and to determine relationship of self-concept to the selected variables. The subjects of the study were 214 out of 298 seventh semester students in four departments in Sanata Dharma plus 42 out of 45 full-time teachers in the four departments concerned. Researcher instruments employed were: (1) Tennessee Self-Concept Scale (TSCS) to measure the self-concept of the students and teachers, (2) Interpersonal Communication Inventory (ICI) constructed by Bienvenu to measure the students' interpersonal communication skills, (3) Questionnaire on Teacher Behavior (QTB) constructed by the researcher himself to measure the students' perception of teachers behavior, and (4) Survey Questionnaire (SQ) constructed by the researcher to get the students' background and their opinions about their departments.
