SELF DESCRIPTION QUESTIONNAIRE III: THE CONSTRUCT VALIDITY OF MULTIDIMENSIONAL SELF‐CONCEPT RATINGS BY LATE ADOLESCENTS
Abstract
This research examines the validity of self‐concept interpretations of scores from a new instrument for use with university‐aged respondents. The Self Description Questionnaire III (SDQ III) was designed to measure 13 factors of self‐concept, and these dimensions were identified with conventional and confirmatory factor analyses. In two different studies, the reliabilities of the 13 factors were high (median alpha = 0.89) and correlations among the factors were low (median r = 0.09). Correlations among a wide variety of validity criteria and the multiple dimensions of self‐concept measured by the SDQ III formed a logical and theoretically consistent pattern of relationships. Academic achievement measures in language and mathematics were substantially correlated with self‐concepts in the same areas but not with other self‐concept factors. Ratings by significant others for all 13 SDQ HI scales were substantially correlated with the measures of corresponding self‐concepts, but were not substantially correlated with the measures of noncorresponding self‐concepts. These findings offer strong support for the construct validity of both self‐concept and interpretations based upon the SDQ III.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
