Self Concept and Self Esteem
- Definition of self-concept
- Self-concept has been defined in various ways. The following are three foci relating to the concept:
Self-concept is the discrepancy between an individual's real self (myself as I am) and ideal self (myself
as I’d like to be).
The larger the discrepancy, the lower the self-concept.
High concept comes from an internal belief as well as an experienced feeling of worth and value.
High self-concept is consistent with low mood fluctuations, i.e. Adverse external circumstances
do not "destroy" a high self-esteem person because intrinsic (internal) worth and value
exists
“ Cos, you’re fat and ugly”, says Cos’ wife constantly. Cos replies, “I know but I’m cool with
that. I’ve got other positive attributes”. “ Sticks and stones…”
Self-concept generally revolves around believing that you're "o.k.".
As such, it has a great deal to do with self-acceptance.
Self Esteem
- Definition of self-esteem
- Whereas self-concept is seen as the discrepancy between the real-self and the ideal-self; Self-esteem is
usually viewed as:
- The feeling which is associated with the discrepancy
- The commitment or salience which is ascribed to a particular event
- So, whereas self-concept is a belief system (cognitive domain), self-esteem is seen more as the feeling
(affective domain) associated with particular events and triggered and interpreted through the belief
system.
