WHAT THE TEST MEASURES

About This Assessment

Self-Esteem Test

self-esteem

It can be difficult to gauge the degree to which self-worth is stable or diminished in everyday functioning. The Self-Esteem Test is a brief self-report measure intended to screen for concerns related to self-evaluation and confidence.

The instrument includes 50 items and typically requires about 10 minutes to complete. Items focus on subjective perceptions of personal value and related emotional responses, and results are generally used as an initial indicator of areas that may warrant further clinical inquiry.

The Self-Esteem Test was developed by Sorensen, M. and may be used in individual or group settings as a preliminary assessment to inform follow-up discussion and treatment planning, rather than as a standalone diagnostic tool.
