| dc.description.abstract | Covert modeling was used as a treatment to reduce self-consciousness in adolescents ages 13 to 15. The hypothetical construct of the Imaginary Audience as conceived by Elkind is discussed, and a distinction made between it and self-consciousness . For the purpose of this study, Imaginary Audience is hypothesized to be a developĀmental stage that can be altered through covert modeling and observational learning using videocassette recordings. The hypothesis is not supported. The Adolescent Social Behaviour Scale and the Fenigstein Self-Consciousness Scale were administered to 47 grade nine junior high school students as de pendent variables. Sig n if i cant correlations were not ed in several subscales of the two tests which indiĀcate a relationship between self-consciousness and Imaginary Audience. Overall, however, Imaginary Audience is perceived as a separate construct. The age of greatest concern for the Imaginary Audience differs between boys and girls. | |
