Abstract
Purpose: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of a self-esteem improvement program
on self-esteem and peer attachment in elementary school children with observed problematic behaviors.
Methods: This study is a quasi-experimental study with a nonequivalent control group pretest-post-test
design. A total of 47 fourth grade elementary school students participated in this study. The program was
provided for 45 minutes once a week; a total of 12 sessions were completed with a group in the
classroom for the experimental group. Child Problem-Behavior Screening Questionnaire was used to
measure problematic behavior. Self-esteem was measured using the Rosenberg's Self-esteem Questionnaire,
and peer attachment was measured using the Inventory of Parent and Attachment. Measuring
was performed right after the program was done (post 1) and 1 month after the program was finished
(post 2). To compare the differences in self-esteem and peer attachment between groups, repeated
measures analysis of variance was used.
Results: Most participants in the experimental group were 10 years old (62.5%, range 10e11), male
(52.0%) and with middle grade point average (64.0%). The self-esteem scores in the experimental group
were significantly higher than those of the control group (F ¼ 26.64, p < .001). The peer attachment
scores in the experimental group were significantly higher than those of the control group (F ¼ 6.48,
p ¼ .014).
Conclusions: The self-esteem improvement program in this study improved the self-esteem and peer
attachment in elementary school children. The self-esteem program helped acknowledge the peer's
name and increased their connections. The program needs to be considered as a formal and consistent
program.
