    Author: Omar AG.
    Journal: Acta Psiquiatr Psicol Am Lat; 1994 Sep; 40(3):224-30. PubMed ID: 7872027.
    Abstract:
    The association between the two major Eysenckian Personality dimensions, and the affective-connotative evaluation of self-concept as a reflection of academic success/failure are analyzed among a 111-schoolchild sample. Findings show the main effect of academic performance and personality on children's affective perception of their self-concepts: Schoolchildren with a good performance enjoy a better self-appraisal, and their affective connotations are more positive than their peers' with a poorer performance. On the other hand, association between affect intensity and Neuroticism predisposition is not so clear. A relationship between neuroticism and negative affect predisposition is observed only when associated to introversion and poor performance.
