The Relationship Between Self-Esteem and Self-Presentation Strategies and the Construction of a Network Self-Image by Users of Social Networks

The article is devoted to an empirical analysis of the relationship between self-esteem and strategies for self-presentation and the construction of a network Self-image of users of social networks. In the definition and study of self-esteem, differences were taken into account not only in the level of self-esteem as such, but also in its various types, determined by a different combination of two dimensions of self-esteem: self-disposition (self-worth) and competence. To measure self-esteem, methods were used – the Rosenberg Self-esteem Scale (RSES), the Tafarodi and Swan scale (SLCS). The Online Self Presentation Scale (POSS) developed by K. Fullwood, B.M. James and C.H. Chen-Wilson was used to identify strategies for self-presentation in social networks and to construct a network Self-image. The conducted analysis showed the absence of significant statistical links between the level of self-esteem, both global and by individual components, and indicators of the intensity of use of social networks. The results of comparing the level of self-esteem among users with a different network role, that is, a predominant level of activity in online communications, turned out to be more definite. The interrelationships between the level and type of self-esteem, on the one hand, and strategies of self-presentation and the construction of a network self-image, on the other hand, are revealed. It has been proven that users with low self-esteem significantly distort their Self-image when communicating on social networks, tend to idealize their Self-image and show a desire to adjust their image to the expectations of a specific network audience. People with high self-esteem demonstrate more conservative models of online communication, are not inclined to self-promotion and idealization of the Self-image, as well as to the divergence of Self-images in various networks and communities.

The Study of Self-Esteem in Chronically Ill Individuals in Correlation to Health Care in Bangkok Teenagers Aged Between 15 and 19

Chronic diseases have persisted in a person’s body throughout their life. Most chronic diseases lead to disabilities in people, which may influence their self-esteem, behavioral outcomes, and/or quality of life. Self-esteem, on the other hand, is an attribute of an adaptable personality that has been correlated to physical well-being. Correspondingly, low self-esteem has frequently been associated with self-stigma, in which one incorporates negative perceptions of chronic disease and sees the illness as a poor reflection of the self. Thus, we conducted survey research on Thai students aged between 15 and 19 using an online questionnaire to determine whether having chronic diseases and accessibility to healthcare services influence an individual’s level of self-esteem. The survey conducted in this research has shown that chronic diseases don’t have an impact on a person’s self-esteem. Instead, lifestyle choices and health care management appear to be the factors determining the quality and quantity of self-esteem in an individual. Therefore, it is crucial that individuals are aware of making healthy life choices that will positively impact their self-esteem rather than poor decisions that will have adverse implications. Thus, examining the correlation between chronically ill individuals and their level of self-esteem in Thai teenagers can assist in raising social awareness about making healthy lifestyle choices to prevent the potential negative effects.

The Online Looking Glass: The Study of Self Esteem and Narcissism on Instagram within a Patriarchal and Collectivist Society

Online social networking sites have revealed an entirely new method of impression management and self-expression. These user-generated social tools present a new and evolving medium of investigation to study personality and identity. The current study examines how narcissism and self-esteem are demonstrated on the social networking application Instagram. To frame our research, we utilized the Uses and Gratifications Theory, which explains why audiences consume mediated messages and how and why authors create user-generated media (UGM). In this research our objective was to understand how and why users of Instagram in Kuwait were using the social media platform and how it related and impacted their self-esteem and how it revealed, if any, narcissistic personality traits. To do so, self-esteem and narcissistic personality self-reports were collected from 79 Instagram users in Kuwait and we also followed and analyzed their Instagram accounts. In our analysis, these participants’ profiles were coded on self-promotional content features based on their Instagram photos and captions posted on their Instagram accounts. By probing the relationship between this new medium, we can begin to understand the relationship amongst technology, culture, and the self. Keywords: social media, Kuwait, Instagram, self-esteem, narcissism, social networking

The practice of introducing an electronic health passport in educational institutions

Introduction. Monitoring of students' health and physical fitness in general educational institutions is an integral part of the educational process, however, it takes much time on the part of teachers and school authorities responsible for collecting and storing information about health. The research relevance is substantiated by the need to preserve and strengthen students' health due to the dependence of the quality of education on the level of students' health and their performance. The research purpose was to test an electronic health passport in educational institutions for a comprehensive assessment of students' health and physical fitness indicators. Materials and methods. More than 600 schoolchildren of three age groups took part in the study: students aged 8-9 (298 students), 12-13 (244 schoolchildren), 15-16 (119 boys and girls) from general educational institutions in Lipetsk. Methods of assessing the morphofunctional state (measurement of body weight and length, blood pressure, heart rate monitoring, health coefficient calculation), the questionnaire method (assessment of school motivation, the study of self-esteem, diagnostics of learning motivation and emotional attitude to learning, the Ladder test) and methods of assessing physical fitness included in the All-Russian Physical Education and Sports Complex "Ready for Labor and Defense" were used. Research results. Significant differences (p<0.05) were determined in indicators of the health coefficient among schoolchildren from three general educational institutions in Lipetsk, and a tendency towards a decrease in the level of students' health from the lower grades to the higher ones was revealed. A decrease in indicators of school motivation and interest in the learning process was found in half of the students of primary school age (13-14 points out of 30 possible ones) and the majority of secondary school students (8-13 points out of 60 possible ones) and senior school students (7-12 points out of 60 possible ones). An insignificant difference (p>0.05) was found in the indicators of physical fitness of schoolchildren with different training profiles. The practice of introducing an automated electronic health passport system made it possible to systematize large amounts of information on various parameters characterizing the students' health and physical fitness in the shortest possible time and to optimize the teachers' work. Conclusion. The authors presented an experience of approbation of an electronic health passport, which made it possible to determine the level of physical, mental health and physical fitness of each student or group of students, formulate recommendations for students, parents and heads of educational institutions, as well as conduct a comparative characteristic of the studied indicators of schoolchildren from various educational institutions.

An investigation of self-esteem in the treatment of OCD

The cognitive-behavioral model of obsessive-compulsive disorder, along with several contemporary theories, suggests that self-esteem is likely an important component of OCD psychopathology and treatment. Little research, however, has explored the association between self-esteem and OCD. The study of self-esteem is itself a complex pursuit. A comprehensive investigation of self-esteem requires consideration of state and trait aspects of this construct and a longitudinal perspective, particularly when self-esteem is studied during the course of psychological treatment. In this study, adults participating in psychological treatment for OCD provided repeated self-reports of self-esteem throughout the course of therapy. The aims of this study were to evaluate the relationship between self-esteem and severity of OCD and depressive symptoms; to examine whether temporal variability (i.e., fluctuation) in self-esteem was associated with symptom reduction; and to measure changes in self-esteem over time. Our results indicated the following: average self-esteem across treatment, variability in self-esteem, and depressive symptomatology were significantly correlated with post-treatment OCD severity; self-esteem did not affect the rate of OCD symptom change over treatment but did significantly affect the rate of depressive symptom change; self-esteem increased significantly before and after sessions, on average, and over the course of treatment. Implications and further directions are discussed.

Retrospective Study of Self Esteem in Patients with Pityriasis Versicolor

Background: Pityriasis Versicolor (PV) is a fungal infection of the skin, caused by the Malassezia sp., a genus of fungi. Patients commonly present with bordered skin patches of white, grey, and sometimes brown on their skin surface. The prominent changing of skin colour in exposed areas of the skin may cause feelings of insecurity to the patients and become limelight for other people, impacting their self esteem. Purpose: To evaluate the self esteem profile in PV patients at the dermatovenereology outpatient clinic of Dr. Soetomo General Academic Teaching Hospital Surabaya. Methods: This was a retrospective descriptive study based on medical records of the dermatovenereology outpatient clinic of Dr. Soetomo General Academic Teaching Hospital Surabaya.

This research evaluates PV patients's profiles by age, sex, education level, occupation, residential environment, site of infection, duration of the infection, and self esteem. The patient's self esteem was assessed using the Rosenberg Self Esteem Scale (RSES). Result: Fiftythree PV patient’s self esteem values were successfully recorded. Of the 53 patients, the score was low in 3 people (5.67%), the normal score in 50 people (94.33%), and no one had a high score. Of the 3 people with low self esteem scores, 2 of them were men, consisting of 1 teenager and 2 adults, having basic education levels, who were students and housewives. The three patients had the infection for more than 3 months and they resided in Tambaksari, Wonocolo, and outside Surabaya. Conclusion: The majority of PV patients at the dermato-venereology outpatient clinic of Dr. Soetomo General Academic Teaching Hospital have normal self esteem scores.

Social Integration, Daily Discrimination, and Biological Markers of Health in Mid- and Later Life: Does Self-Esteem Play an Intermediary Role?

Background and ObjectivesThis cross-sectional study examines associations of social integration and daily discrimination with 4 biological markers of inflammation and cardiovascular health and tests whether self-esteem may mediate any of these effects.Research Design and MethodsData came from 746 participants of the National Survey of Midlife Development in the United States (MIDUS) Refresher (2011–2014) and MIDUS Refresher Biomarker Project (2012–2016). Structural equation modeling estimated direct and indirect associations of social integration and daily discrimination with glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c), high-density lipoprotein (HDL), C-reactive protein, and interleukin-6.ResultsSocial integration and daily discrimination were both significantly associated with self-esteem, which was in turn associated with HbA1c, HDL, and interleukin-6 levels. Social integration was indirectly associated with HbA1c, HDL, and interleukin-6 via self-esteem. Daily discrimination was directly associated with HbA1c, C-reactive protein, and interleukin-6 and was indirectly associated with HDL and interleukin-6 via self-esteem.Discussion and ImplicationsFindings identify social correlates of inflammation and cardiovascular risk and suggest that self-esteem may serve as a pathway for effects. Overall, results were somewhat mixed: Daily discrimination was directly associated with both self-esteem and 3 of the 4 biological markers of health; however, although social integration was strongly associated with self-esteem, it was only weakly and indirectly associated with biological health markers. Moreover, the indirect effects of daily discrimination on the biomarker outcomes—while significant—were notably smaller than its direct effects. Implications for theory, practice, and future research are discussed, including the need for further study of self-esteem and physical health across mid- and later life.

Prihozhan); “Map of the assessment of children's protective mechanisms” by E. V. Chumakova; Questionnaire of Personality by R. Kettella (adaptation of E. M. Aleksandrovskaya); Method for screening diagnosis of mental stress and neurotic tendencies in children and adolescents.” Results. The average group indicators of the main group have higher values than the indicators of the control group on the scales of “acceptance”, “symbiosis”, “control”. Teenagers with a stutter evaluate their character less positively, while they are less confident in their own abilities and capabilities. The level of claims in the main group is lower than in the control. Conclusion. A significant factor influencing the formation of an adequate self-esteem of a teenager, regardless of whether he has a speech impairment, is the direct psychological contact of parents with the child, by which it is necessary to understand the desire and desire of parents to learn the inner world of their child’s experiences (3 tables, bibliography: 5 refs).
