A Developmental Analysis of Black Children's Others Concept

University of Massachusetts/Boston

Thirty-seven Black children from the first, fourth, and eighth grades were individually administered several measures in order to assess their level of others concept development with respect to Blacks and with respect to Whites. It was hypothesized that Black children's others concept toward Blacks would be more positive than their others concept toward Whites. This hypothesis was not supported. However, the results indicate that others concept development in Black children is a complex process and is age-related. In particular, it was found that Black children's others concept toward the Black group seems to become more positive with age, whereas Black children's others concept toward the White group does not significantly change with age.
