Sažetak
In order to examine the statistical significnce offamily relations quality andparental attitude toward child and how does it refer to a child self-esteem, and its self-image in general, there was made a sample of 120 pairs seventh grade pupils and their parents: In the research there were included six primary schools in the area of Zagreb. The author has used three types of measuring Instruments, formed as measuring selfperception scales (“Indexofself-esteem” , “Indexoffamily relations” and “Indexofparent’sattitude toward child"). Ali administered scales were submitted to canonical corelation analysis. The outcomming results have supportedpresumed hypotheses: In thefamily where the general atmosphere provides possibilities for basic psihological needs to be met, and where child has expirienced security, satisfaction, joy, beeing significant and accepted, he will develop a self-concept of a person content with himself and with his significant others.
Also, in thefamily where the interpersonal communication is deficient, with the lack of contacts and intensiv emotions (“evening” or “weekend" contacts), child develops a poor self-concept and lower self-esteem, tending to compensate needs of “beeing emportant” . and “beeing accepted” elsewhere.
There is, as well, statisticaly significant corelation between parent’s attitude and child’s self-esteem: where parents have percepted their child as a source offrustration, iritation, and are generally discontent with him, child develops “looser’s" selfconcept, feeling defeated, hopeless and not worthy.
According to the presented results, author emphasizes the emportance of supportive, stimulating andemotionalywarmfamily atmosphere for adolescent’ s quality of selfconcept and the level ofhis self-esteem.
