520 $a Purpose of the study. To improve the educational outcome of students who are at-risk for academic failure, the purpose of this study was to determine the effects that an urban middle school intensive guidance intervention program had on the academic success of Grade 8 at-risk, middle school students.
520 $a Procedure. A random sample of 80 student participants was chosen for this study from the 150 students identified as at-risk. The total number of students in the study included 32 subjects in the treatment group and 31 subjects in the control group for a total of 63 student participants.
520 $a The following measures were implemented during the pre- and post-intervention sessions: (1) Coopersmith Self-Esteem Inventories (SEI) was used to measure the level of self-esteem; (2) Piers-Harris Children's Self-Concept Inventory 2 (PHCSCI) was used to measure the level of self-concept; (3) the grade point average (GPA) of the core curriculum courses (English, Mathematics, Social Studies, Science) was used to measure academic achievement; (4) the number of days absent was used to measure attendance; and (5) the total number of times students were referred for (a) in-school suspension; (b) suspension; and (c) removals/expulsions was used to measure behavior.
520 $a Findings. A multivariate analysis of variance was used to test all five hypotheses with treatment as a between factor measure and pre-/post-treatment as a repeated factor measure. Focus within subjects' contrast was used to determine the treatment effects. Accounting of significant treatment (condition) by pre-/post-interaction contrast allowed the conclusion that the treatment effected change on a given dependent variable. An alpha level of .05 was used for the tests. The results showed a significant interaction between the experimental and control groups in the following areas: (a) self-esteem based on the CSEI total scores, F (1, 61) = 10.2 p < .002; (b) self-concept based on the PHCSCS scores, F (1,61) = 48.4 p < .001; and (c) academic achievement scores based on the grade point average of the core curriculum courses, F (1, 61) = 10.98 p < .002. The results of the multivariate analysis tests on attendance and appropriate behavior showed no significant difference between the experimental and the control groups.
520 $a The primary implication of this research for schools is that an intensive guidance intervention program does hold promise. By utilizing a cognitive-behavioral classroom guidance curriculum combined with supportive and individualized solution-focused counseling sessions, there is a definite effect on students' self-esteem and a contribution to students' successful academic performances.
