Popis: This study examined differences in self-concept between children with congenital low vision and their sighted peers. The sample consisted of thirty-four eight- to eleven-year-old children, seventeen with congenital low vision (nine boys and eight girls) and seventeen who were sighted. The findings revealed that the children with low vision scored lower than those with normal vision in aspects of their relationships with classmates but higher in their relationships with parents. No differences were found on other general or specific facets of the self-concept, such as physical ability, physical appearance, verbal ability, mathematics, or general subjects.
