Abstract

A review of pertinent literature on the effects of westernization/urbanization on traditional African society was made. A self-concept study of 133 urban and 110 rural male and female Nigerian adolescents showed that the younger urban sample had significantly more negative self-concepts than their older rural counterparts. Suggestions were made for enhancing the self-concepts of young urbanites.
