Self-Esteem
Self-esteem is your evaluation of your own worth. It may be positive
or negative. Positive self-esteem is the valuation that is pleasing and
acceptable according to your standard and that of others, while
negative self-esteem is the opposite which is feeling distraught or
down and unaccepted by others.
According to Tafarodi & Swann (1995), there are many factors to
identify the level of self-esteem of an individual and some of the
major factors are:
- own appearance
- how satisfied you are in a relationship; and
- how you view your performance.

Self-Efficacy
Self-efficacy is not considered as a trait. “[It] does not
refer to your abilities but rather to your beliefs about
what you can do with your abilities” (Stajkovic &
Luthans, 1998). It is your will to produce an effect on a
specific thing. It is your self-belief to effectively achieve
your most important goal.
Maddux and Kleiman (2000) define and explain the five
(5) different ways that influenced self-efficacy beliefs
from the ideas of Albert Badura, a professor and a
psychologist.
Listen!

(a)Performance Experiences – if you are good at


achieving your specific goal, then you probably think
that you will achieve it again. When the opposite
happens, if you fail, you will often think that you will
fail again.
(b)Vicarious Performances – if others achieved their
goal or specific task, then you will come to believe
that you will also achieve your goal.
Listen!

(c)Verbal Persuasion – it is when people tell you whether they believe


or not on what you can do or cannot do. The effect of your self-efficacy
will depend on how that person matters to you.

(d) Imaginal Performances – When you imagine yourself doing well,


then it will happen.

(e) The Affective States & Physical Sensations – if your mood or


emotion (e.g. shame) and physical state (e.g. shaking) come together,
it will affect your self-efficacy. If negative mood connects with negative
physical sensation, the result will be negative. And if it is positive, most
likely the result will be positive.

Self and Identity
Have you tried to talk to yourself in front of the mirror?
What did you see? According to William James, a
psychologist, “the self is what happens when I reflect
upon ME". Taylor (1989) described the self as a
Reflective Project. How we see ourselves is geared
toward improving ourselves depending on a lot of
factors.
Dan McAdam, a psychologist, reiterated that even there
are many ways on how we reflect to improve ourselves,
it brings us back to these three (3) categories:
Listen!
1. Self as Social Actor
We are portraying different roles and behaving for
every type/set of people in front of us since we all care
about what people think about us. It is practically for
social acceptance.
2.Self as Motivated Agent
People act based on their purpose. They do things
based on their own dreams, desires, and planned goals
for the future. This, though, is not easily identifiable since
it is self-conceptualized, unless it was shared with us.
Listen!

3. Self as Autobiographical Author


He/she as the creator of his/her own entire life
story. It is about how oneself is developed
from his/her past, up to the present, and what
he/she will become in the future.
Judgment and Decision Making
Bazerman and Moore (2013) suggested the Six Steps on
How to Make a Rational Decision:
1.Define the Problem
2.Identify the criteria necessary to judge the multiple
options
3.Weight the criteria
4.Generate alternatives
5.Rate each alternative on each criterion
6.Compute the optimal decision

Sharing is Caring
Some “One” Dear
You learned from the previous text that Self is a “Reflective
Project”. We do reflective assessment and we keep on trying to
change ourselves for what we think is the best. Big part of the
reflecting process are considerations like how you think people
perceive you. However, sometimes you could get so caught up
with a lot of things that you tend to fail to project yourself
formally to others.
This activity will open the chance for you to tell everything that
you want to say to a person dear to you. You are tasked to create
a letter for someone that matters to you. Share all your learnings,
your discovered characteristics, habits, and experiences that you
failed to tell him/her before.
Modified True or False: Write TRUE if the statement is correct. If the statement is
wrong, change the underlined word/s with the correct answer. Write your answer in a
separate sheet.
1. Self-esteem is your evaluation of your own worth.
2. There are factors to identify the level of self-esteem of an individual namely: own appearance;
how satisfied you are in a relationship; and how you view your performance.
3. Self-Identity is your belief on your own abilities.
4. There are five (5) different ways that influenced self-efficacy beliefs. Those are Performance
Experiences, Vicarious Performances, Verbal Persuasion, Literal Performances, and the Affective
States & Physical Sensations
5. There are three (3) categories on how we reflect to improve ourselves, these are: Self as Social
Actor, Self as Conscience Agent, and Self as Autobiographical Author.
6. In Self, an individual, is expected to act and decide on his/her own.
7. Most people tend to decide based on the intuitions and available information that could be a
hindrance in making a wise decision.
8. Six Steps on How to Make a Rational Decision: Define the Problem, Identify the criteria
necessary to judge the multiple options, Weight the criteria, generates alternatives, rate each
