摘要：The primary objective of the current study was to investigate the effect of self-esteem and peers relations in junior high school female students in Farashband, Iran. The statistical population of the study was all junior high school female students in Farashband, Iran in 2012-2013. The study sample consisted of 30 students using multi-Step random sampling method from the intended population and divided into two experimental and control groups (15 subjects in each group). The study was conducted as a quasi-experimental research. The instruments applied in this study included Rosenberg's Self-esteem Scale (RSES) Questionnaire and Index of Peer Relations (IPR) of Hudson (1992). After the random selection of experimental and control groups, a pre-test was performed on both groups. Then, the experimental intervention (self-knowledge training) was conducted in 8 sessions of 1.5 hours and after the completion of the training programs; the post-test was done on both groups. The analysis of the results of Independent sample T-test on the difference between the mean scores of pre-test and post-test showed that the self-knowledge training has resulted in a significant effect on the enhancement of self-esteem scores (P<0.002) and an increase in peer relations scores (P<0.001).
