Self-Esteem

Quotes

Cabaniss, Deborah (et al.)

“How we see ourselves is critical to how we function in the world. Our self-perceptions relate both to our sense of identity and to our self-appraisal.” 1

Discussion

Self-esteem is a relatively new concept, and is not defined by either Chaplin (1973) or English & English (1974).
