Afro-western art: Instrumental in the support and development of a positive self-concept as integral part of mental health

C PH Myburgh, M B Van Der Watt

Abstract


Self-concept is at the basis of almost all human achievement. A positive self-concept is one of the most important motivating forces in promoting higher scholastic achievement as well as promoting mental health. In this article the results of a quasi-experiment are described.

Opsomming
Selfkonsep is onderliggend aan bykans alle menslike prestasie sowel as die bevordering van geestesgesondheid. 'n Positiewe selfkonsep is een van die belangrikste motive ringskragte in die bevordering van beter skolastiese prestasie.
