N2 - A considerable body of researches indicate a high trend in researching social media. Accordingly, the study aimed to explore the relationship between social media relationships and academic self-concept through a correlation analysis. The data was collected from the 246 participants in secondary school who aged 12-16 years old from Shanghai, China. Results showed that all measures constructed for the study were internally consistent. Giving clues about social media, this study reveals that most students used blog, QQ, and WeChat frequently to connect with each other or share posts. The findings show there is a significant high positive relationship among positive peer relationships, academic persistence, academic expectation, learning interest, and academic self-concept.
