This is a person’s definition of the self that basically comes to his/her mind when they are asked to define his/her self.

Self, Identity, and Self-concept are never changing.

George Herbert Mead believes that the self is not created and developed through our interaction with other people but rather on our self alone.

 We are capable of creating ourselves out of nothing.

Downward Social comparison is when we create a positive self-concept by comparing ourselves with those who are worse off than us

Upward social comparison is then we compare ourselves with those who are better off than us.

Too much upward Social comparison may affect our self-esteem especially when the person focuses more in comparing his/her weakness or inequities

Similar with the view of Kant as the organizing principle, what was Carl Rogers term for our organized system of the self or the collection of knowledge about who we are?

Who was the Psychoanalyst that developed a theory about human personality, in which one’s behavior is the result of the interaction between Id, Ego, and Superego?

This is a type of self awareness that belongs to our internal standards which includes our private thoughts and feelings.

This is an experience in which there is a loss of individual self awareness and loss of  individual accountability in groups.

Comparing yourself to your classmate who got a lower score than you to make you feel better is what type of social comparison?

This is a trait that is characterized by overly high self-esteem, self-admiration and self-centeredness

According to Mead, we need others to affirm and reinforce our thoughts as a reference point of our identity.
