Predicting young adults’ self-concept with couples’ coordination and intellectual mutuality in Qeshm County in Iran

Abstract

The present study was intended to predict young adults’ self-concept according to couples’ coordination and intellectual mutuality. The study’s statistical population consists of Qeshm County high-school students and their parents, and their data was collected from March 2014 until August 2015. The sample of this descriptive-co relational study consisted of 200 individuals selected using the convenience sampling method. For data analysis, simple correlation and multivariate regression were used in the deductive section to predict and analyze the relationship between variables. This study used the Piers-Harris Children's Self-Concept Scale (CSCS) and the Iranian Couples’ Intellectual Mutuality and Coordination Questionnaire by Javedan (2013), as well as SPSS 21 for data analysis. The results showed a simple and multivariate relationship between the young adults’ self-concept and couples’ intellectual mutuality, and these variables were significant at the P≤0.01 level.
