- Abstract
To understand current high school students’ self-esteem, locus of control and achievement motivation and research the relationship between them, we investigated on 270 high school students by using SES, IPC and AMS. The results are as follows: (1)There is no significantly gender difference in self-esteem, locus of control and achievement motivation.. (2) Self-esteem, locus of control and achievement motivation among high school students were significantly correlated. (3) Self-esteem can predict achievement motivation of high school students in locus of control for mediation.
