<研究ノート> 大学生活への意欲と達成が自尊感情に与える影響 : 大学１年生に対する縦断調査

Abstract

Effects of freshmen's motivation and achievement in campus life on their self-esteem were investigated, and results were discussed from the perspective of their career education. Questionnaires were distributed among freshmen (n = 259) on three occasions: at the beginning of the first semester (April), at the beginning of the second semester (September), and at the end of the second semester (January). Results indicated the following. (1) Attributes such as the process of entering the university and whether the university was the first preference affected self-esteem even in January. (2) Making many friends and developing deep relationships with them in the first semester positively affected self-esteem in January, whereas achieving the same in the second semester did not affect self-esteem.
