A validity study of two forms of the self-esteem rating scale

Article Abstract:

A study is conducted to examine the equivalence of validity and reliability of two forms of the Self-Esteem Rating Scale. The findings suggest that the two forms may be used interchangeably in social work practice and that the equating formula may be used to convert a score from one form to an equivalent score on the other form.
