Abstract This study aimed at investigating the effectiveness of feedback in improving the responding of male - female students to a self-concept scale and the effects of sex, feedback, and interaction between these two variables on self-concept among those students. The sample consisted of 107 students (41 females and 66 males) in sixth grade at the basic stage; their ages were between 11 and 13 years. The tool of the study was a questionnaire consisting of 72 items along 4 dimensionsT test, two-way ANOVA & MANOVA analysis were used to know the effects of feedback, sex, and interaction among two variables on self-concept. The results were as follows: 1- There were statistically significant differences between means of the experimental group on pre- and post-overall scales due to post overall scale. But the differences were due to pre-overall scale in case of the control group. 2- There were statistically significant differences between means of control and experimental groups in case of the overall post self-concept scale and in cases of pre-and post-(social, and academic self-concept) due to the feedback effect, but there were no significant differences between means of sex groups on post-overall scale or post-sub-scales 3- There were statistically significant differences between means of groups in cells due to the effect of interaction between feedback and sex.
