Self-concept is a subjective description of who you think you are, reflected in your attitudes, beliefs, and values which are instilled in us from our earliest interpersonal relationships. These interactions with both individuals and groups provide labels and information that shape how we see ourselves. Self-esteem reflects an evaluation of who you are, based upon comparisons to others. We make judgments about our competence and value based upon how others react to us. We also judge how we measure up in the performance of our daily activities compared to how well others perform similar activities. Our self-esteem is determined by the judgments that we make from these comparisons.

Answer:

“Self-concept” is a dynamic system of a person’s self-image, which includes a person’s awareness of his/her qualities (physical, emotional, and intellectual), self-esteem, as well as subjective perception of external factors influencing this personality.

This concept is the result of self-knowledge and self-esteem of a person through separate images in the framework of various real and imagined situations, as well as through the opinions of others and the person's relationship with them.

“Self-concept” arises in the individual in social interaction as an inevitable and always unique result of mental development, as well as a relatively stable and, at the same time, subject to internal transformation mental acquisition.

The initial dependence of the Self-concept on external influences cannot be challenged; however, as it develops, it begins to play an independent role in the life of all people. The surrounding reality and ideas about other people are perceived by people through the filter of “Self-concept,” which is formed in the process of socialization and at the same time has specific individual biological and somatic prerequisites.
