Abstract
In the paper the authors try to establish the differences between
persons with lower and higher self-esteem in a number of measures
covering certain aspects of the social evaluation construct
and processes connected to it such as self-presentation. In the
research 281 examinees participated, while a total of nine frequently
used scales for assessment of certain aspects of social
evaluation were used. The results obtained indicate that it is possible
to speak of a considerably consistent difference between
persons with lower and higher self-esteem, when social evaluation
is concerned, and furthermore, persons with lower self-esteem
indicate to a much greater extent the fear for resulting processes
of social evaluation than persons with higher self-esteem.
