Abstract: Self-concept for educationally disadvantaged, chronically unemployed and underemployed adults was examined using two program contents. In the present study, students in Human Resources Development Programs, high school completion programs, and General Educational Development Programs were pre-tested and post-tested for self-concept before and after their respective programs. The main results showed a significant increase in self-concept scores for Human Resources Development Program participants as opposed to the participants in high school completion programs and General Educational Development Programs.
