Abstract

Three self report measures were employed to identify the

underachievers among 51 third graders. Ability was assessed by the

California Test of Mental Maturity. Achievement was measured by the

Stanford Achievement Test and final GPA. Results were nonsignificant,

but in the predicted direction. Self reports of students average or

below in ability, SAT, or GPA were significantly lower, although most

of these students were not defined as underachievers.
