WHAT THE TEST MEASURES
About This Assessment
Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale (RSES) Test - Symptoms and Signs
This measure assesses global self-esteem, reflecting an individual’s overall evaluation of personal worth. The Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale (RSES) is commonly used in clinical and research settings as a brief indicator of positive and negative self-regard.
It consists of 10 items and typically takes about 2 minutes to complete. Statements are balanced in positive and negative wording to support a broad appraisal of self-evaluative attitudes and to reduce response bias.
Scores from the Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale (RSES) can help characterize self-esteem level and guide further assessment when clinically indicated, particularly in contexts where self-concept may be relevant to mood, stress response, or interpersonal functioning.
