About self-esteem quiz
A self-esteem quiz is a psychological tool designed to measure an individual’s perception of their own worth and abilities. Through a series of carefully crafted questions, it assesses feelings of confidence, self-acceptance, and overall satisfaction with oneself. The quiz typically includes both Likert scale and open-ended questions, covering areas like self-perception, social interactions, competence, achievement, and emotional well-being.
Responses help identify areas of high self-esteem and pinpoint where support might be needed. Although useful for personal insight, it’s important to approach the results as a preliminary overview, not a definitive measure, and seek professional guidance for a comprehensive evaluation.
