Incivility In Algerian Schools: A Challenge To Students’ Self-esteem



Authors : Samira Abdi .

Abstract

This study aims to examine and explore the self-esteem of school-going adolescents involved in uncivil behaviors—a relatively recent concept that encompasses a range of disruptive actions that challenge established order and has become widespread in school settings. The research was conducted at YAICI Abdelkader High School (formerly Technicum) in Ihedadden, Béjaïa, with 150 students aged 15 to 20 years enrolled during the 2024/2025 academic year. A descriptive method was adopted, using two instruments: Pierre Coslin’s Incivility Scale (1997) and the Toulouse Self-Esteem Scale (adolescent version). Findings show: (1) gender differences in uncivil behaviors; (2) variability in self-esteem levels across its domains depending on gender; and (3) no significant relationship between adolescents’ involvement in uncivil behaviors and their self-esteem-suggesting that students engaged in such behaviors do not necessarily experience reduced self-esteem as a result of their actions.
