Self-Esteem Questionnaire

To be able to understand your result, it is important to understand what self-esteem really is. The idea of self-esteem is thrown around quite a bit in psychology and certainly in pop psychology. People often think that self-esteem comes from being happy, but, in truth, happiness is built on self-esteem.

In short, self-esteem is a subjective self-evaluation of your own abilities, capabilities and worth. The issue is, that it is a subjective evaluation, this means it is how you see and rate yourself. And, sometimes, that isn’t so accurate. Unfortunately, or fortunately (depending on your score), self-esteem is a strong force in determining your feelings of success in life.

On the next page you'll find your score, and, what it means according to this quiz. The score is followed by a short explanation, followed by some tips or ideas to help you. Of course, if you feel that you want to work on your self-esteem, but, can’t do it alone, I encourage you to seek help from a professional.In the bigger picture, research has shown that parents generally fall into one of three parenting types. It’s not to say that parents may not have some of all three as part of their style, but, there is generally one style that dominates overall. So, now that you have taken the test, let’s see how you did! Check your email to see your results.
