Abstract

Summary Subjects (N = 106) from families of two or three children were analyzed in terms of various sibling sex configurations. All were administered the Tennessee Self-concept Scale. Planned contrasts statistical procedures showed that subjects from two-child families did not have significantly different self-concepts when they came from same or mixed-sex sibling families. Subjects from three-child families of two same-sex and one opposite-sex siblings did not have significantly more negative self-concepts than subjects from three-child families with three same-sex siblings. Results were discussed in terms of “a special place in the family.”
