Question

Don is a 24-year-old married teacher. His sister, Diane, age 20, is a single college student. Their cousin, Jude, age 23, is a single man who just lost his job as a bartender. Which of these young adults is likely to have the HIGHEST self-esteem?

Answer 1

It depends, but Don is probably the one individual with highest self-esteem.

Step-by-step explanation:

Self-esteem is a broad concept widely studied in the social sciences and can be defined as the degree in which a person likes, respects, and its confident about themselves.

People with high self-esteem usually exhibit higher levels of competency, confidence, and self-efficacy. They see themselves as competent persons in the different areas of their lives.

In this particular case, one would say that the young adult with higher self esteem in this group of people is Don, because at a young age he is already married and has a respectable Job.

However, self-esteem is more complex than that, maybe Jude, even after losing his job, is resilient enough to overcome this setback without his self esteem being low.

So, it is possible that in this particular example Don is the most likely to have a high self-esteem but in reality is more complicated than that.

Answer 2

Don

Step-by-step explanation:

high self esteem literally means having absolute confidence in one's own ability with little or no aorta of doubt. it is the believe we have in our capabilities and we knowing we can influence our world positively. it does not mean we do not have weaknesses but we believe with absolute confidence that we can overcome this weakness or channel it for a better purpose in life

Self-esteem is also said to be an individual estimate of his/her worth or values,prizes, likes e.t.c.

Don is high in self esteem because at 24 he is an able young man who is capable of taking care of himself, with a good job and stable income and also impact the young generation
