dc.description.abstract	This study investigated the relationship of multidimensional self-concept and hope for African-American urban youth. The participants were 35 boys and girls ranging in age from 13 to 18 years old. All of the youth were from a metropolitan city in Kansas. The youth were given two scales to measure their multidimensional self-concept and their future hopes and goals. The results indicated that urban youth who are members of an urban youth program showed little difference in their global self-concept and hope compared to those youth who do not participate in an urban youth program. The results also showed that boys had higher gain scores than girls for the Hope Scale and certain subscales for the Multidimensional Self-Concept Scale.	en_US
