Table 3 Multigroup growth curve model results for academic self-concept, with initial levels of stereotype awareness (intercept) predicting initial levels of self-concept (intercept) for RQ3, initial levels of stereotype awareness (intercept) predicting changes (slope) in self-concept for RQ4, and changes (slope) in stereotype awareness predicting changes (slope) in self-concept for RQ5.

  1. RQ = research question. Gender: 0 = female, 1 = male; Migration background: 0 = without, 1 = with; Statistically significant p-values (p < 0.05) are printed in bold. The Benjamini-Hochberg correction was applied to all p-values related to a research question (separately for each research question).
