| | Encyclopedia: Self-concept |
 | | The formation of a self image can be a very challenging project for an individual, especially when family, community, or the general society issues strongly negative evaluations of a person that happen to be inaccurate. | | | The consequences can be severe for the individual, who may learn self hatred. | | | Such rectification is most often directed at the individual, but corrective efforts may also need to be directed against members of the general community and/or social institutions that have manipulated individuals in a detrimental way. |

| | A SELF CONCEPT-BASED MODEL OF WORK MOTIVATION |
| | The concept of expectancy is the cornerstone of the cognitive school of motivation. | | | The self esteem is the evaluative component of the self concept (Gergen, 1971; Rosenberg, 1965). | | | The structure of the self concept may be thought of as a relatively stable set of cognitions that provide the basis for the expectancies, instrumentalities, and valences in instrumental or calculative motivation. |

| | Self & Self-Concept |
| | In stating that the goal for Gestalt therapy work is self support, we put the unblocking of a positive sense of self at the heart of the maturation process. | | | In an earlier paper (Korb, 1984) I described one of the reasons for the slowness of the maturation process: the necessary change of the "core" self concept from the (to some extent) negative and shameful (Yontef, 1993) sense of self that is learned in childhood and reinforced by personal experiences throughout life. | | | Often this self-concept, or sense of personal identity, is a response to the lack of validation or the negativity and criticism (as experienced by the child) that are addressed to him/her. |

| | Self-efficacy |
| | This conception of self brought to the forefront of psychological thought an emphasis on the importance of social comparisons in the development of self-beliefs. | | | This focus on a student's sense of self as a principal component of academic motivation is grounded on the taken-for-granted assumption that the beliefs that students create, develop, and hold to be true about themselves are vital forces in their success or failure in school. | | | This is the foundation of Bandura's (1978) conception of triadic reciprocal causation, the view that (a) personal factors in the form of cognition, affect, and biological events, (b) behavior, and (c) environmental influences create interactions that result in a triadic reciprocality of human functioning. |

| | The particular aspects of self concept investigated were global self concept, and the related domain specific areas of social, family/home, and scholastic self concept. | | | The discrepancies between student perception of self concept and teacher ratings of self concept found in this study and other studies, could be due to a variety of interrelated factors. | | | If, however, the child is shielded from negative feedback and repeated failure by supportive teachers or special assistance, then self concept may still be positive, especially if they did have difficulty interpreting social events and thus are less aware of the negative implications of their regular class peers' behaviour. |
