4-H self-concept building in century III

1979

Fu, V.R. | Wampler, K.W.

The purpose of conducting the study mentioned in this article was to investigate attitudes toward sex-roles as seen through the drawings of preadolescent 4-H members. The use of drawings for this study was based on the fact that drawings have been used extensively in evaluating various personality dimensions and as indicators of pyscho-social development. The drawings represented the children's interpretation, perception, and conception of males and females in different situations. This reflects their own identifications, expectations, and status in society at large. A male or female leader who is self-assured and possesses a wide range of human qualities is an excellent role model for a child. Through interactions with the children, they can enhance their personal identification while encouraging wide range development of human qualities. Adults working with children are obligated to offer the best opportunities for the development of a child's individual potential.
