So what is the relationship? Others social behaviour influences our self esteem Self-evaluation is shaped through others Symbolic Interactionism= we develop a sense of self from how we’re treated Sociometer theory of self-esteem= self- esteem is formed through social interaction Interpersonal rejection can lead to low self-esteem People with high self-esteem have experienced positive interpersonal relationships
28
Our behaviour’s determined by our want to improve our self-esteem. Eg, helping someone to increase you self-worth or to get praise Receiving makes us feel confident, with more self-worth, thinking we’re a better person Negative-state Relief model= we help others to rid of negative emotions, instead of helping for them
