dc.description.abstractThe current study attempts to investigate the relationship between self-esteem and academic achievement of Iranian students. Other purposes of this study are investigating the relationships between self-esteem and gender, birth order position and religiosity. The research method adopted was the survey research approach using the Coopersmith’s self-esteem inventory which contains 58 items. The participants were 460 first year high school students (225 boys and 235 girls) who have been chosen randomly among the five educational zones in Tabriz, Iran. For data analysis, the SPSS software has been used. The statistical analyses computed are Pearson’s correlation test, t- test and ANOVA. The results show that there is low but significant correlation between self-esteem and academic achievement of high school students in Tabriz. However, there is no significant difference in term of the level of self-esteem between the two genders. Furthermore, the result shows that there is no correlation between self-esteem and birth order position. There is, however, a positive correlation between self-esteem and constancy to religiosity.en_US
