MORENO MENDEZ, Jaime et al. Self-esteem in a group of children from 8 to 11 years of a public school of the city of Bogotá. Psychol. av. discip. [online]. 2011, vol.5, n.2, pp.155-162. ISSN 1900-2386.

The goal of the study was to establish the different levels of self-esteem in a group of children from 8 to 11 years old, of fourth grade of a public school from Bogotá. For this reason we used a simple descriptive design with a cross-section and we will apply the Piers-Harris questionnaire of self-esteem for children. The results show that in general the group has a moderately high level, which probably indicate that children are forming their values and components relating to self-esteem in an appropriate way, for them to be durable in the vital development and help to strengthened it.
