The purpose of this study was to examine self-concept variables of delinquent boys from intact homes and of delinquent boys from broken homes. In broken homes, the child suffers from the lack of love and affection which are indispensable to the development of positive and accurate self-concept variables. Rejection and deprivation may result from broken homes and have a negative effect in developing the self concept variables. The hypotheses of this study were that delinquent boys from intact homes would demonstrate higher self-concept, self-acceptance, and ideal self than delinquent boys from broken homes. It was further hypothesized that delinquent boys from intact homes would reflect lower self-ideal discrepancy than delinquent boys from broken homes. The findings did not confirm the hypotheses as were predicted.
