- Description:
- The purpose of this study was to examine the level of self-esteem of participants in Upward Bound programs. The study investigated the impact of family structure, parental support, gender and ethnicity and the level of self-esteem of Upward Bound students. The sample for this study were thirty of the fifty program participants. They were enrolled in the John Jay College of Criminal Justice Upward Bound program in New York, New York. An original questionnaire was self-administered in a one-shot episode. The Social Learning Theory was utilized in an attempt to understand how family structure, parental support, gender and ethnicity impact the level of self-esteem of adolescents in the John Jay College of Criminal Justice Upward Bound program. The major findings in this study concluded that there were no statistical significances between the independent and dependent variables as they relate to the level of self-esteem of the adolescents enrolled in the John Jay College of Criminal Justice Upward Bound program.
