EXPERIENCES
After going through this module, you are

characteristics, habits, and experiences
Personal Development: Knowing Oneself
• Self-awareness is an understanding of oneself as unique from
others.
• As an individual, we commonly observe, and undeniably, judge
other people’s manners, beliefs, and lifestyle.
• In this lesson, we will try to know ourselves better by having
careful reflections on how we see ourselves as an individual and
understanding our characters particularly as young and late
adolescent.
ACTIVITY 1
• One of the most common self-report measures of
self-esteem is taken from the Rosenberg Self-
Esteem Scale.
• Indicated is a list of statements dealing with your
general feelings about yourself.
Statements
1. On the whole, I am satisfied with myself.
2. At times I think I am no good at all.
3. I feel that I have a number of good qualities.
4. I am able to do things as well as most other people
5. I feel I do not have much to be proud of.
Statements
6. I certainly feel useless at times.
7. I feel that I'm a person of worth, at least on an equal plane
with others.
8. I wish I could have more respect for myself.
9. All in all, I am inclined to feel that I am a failure.

1. What item do you find

your general feelings? Why or
why not?
Adolescence is the period
when a young individual
develops from a child into an
adult.
Many people believe that we
are the product of our own
experiences.
Now let us focus on when and
how our characteristics, habits,
and experiences develop and
manifest by identifying some of
the factors that may affect a
person’s “Self”.
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,
• negative self-esteem is the opposite which is feeling
distraught or down and unaccepted by others.
Self-Esteem
• Our self concept will contain many positive thoughts and
we will have high self-esteem if we have completed an
important task, done something that we believe is
valuable or important, or if we feel accepted and
respected by others.
• Thus, self-esteem does not imply that one believes that he
or she is better than others, only that he or she is a person
of worth (Diener & Lucas 2017).
Self-Esteem
• Self-esteem can be tested in two ways: explicitly and
implicitly, and both methods reveal that most people
have a favorable image of themselves.
• The Rosenberg Self Esteem Scale is a popular explicit self-
report measure of self-esteem
• Higher scores on the scale indicate higher self-esteem.
Self-Efficacy
1. Performance Experiences
2. Vicarious Performances
3. Verbal Persuasion
4. Imaginal Performances
5. The Affective States & Physical Sensations
5 different ways that influenced self-efficacy
(Albert Badura)
1. 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.

(Albert Badura)
2. Vicarious Performances
– if others achieved their goal or specific task, then
you'll come to believe that you will also achieve
your goal.

3. 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.

(Albert Badura)
4. Imaginal Performances
– When you imagine yourself doing well, then it
will happen.
