Abstract
The present study presents evidence for the reliability and validity of a new measure of self-concept for African adolescents. Procedures for giving the 50-item scale are described. The Self-description Inventory was administered to 634 students in Standards 8 and 9 of two coeducational high schools. Factor analysis clearly identified the eight subscales. The multidimensionality of self-concept among African adolescents is indicated and supports the construct validity. Implications for continued study are mentioned.
