Question

BlackTom AI · Accepted Answer

The question asks about the components of one’s self-concept, specifically distinguishing self-schema from self-esteem.
First, we restate what is being asked: Self-schema is the ______ component of one’s self-concept whereas self-esteem is the ______ component of one’s self-concept.
Next, note that the answer options are not provided in the data set (the answer_options field is empty), so we cannot evaluate alternative phrasing or identify distractors. In a typical multiple-choice setup, you would compare statements about the cognitive, affective, or evaluative nature of these concepts.
Understanding the concepts themselves helps: a self-schema is a cognitive framework—the organized knowledge about oneself that guides processing of self-related information. It is about how one thinks and understands the self, which corresponds to a cognitive component. In contrast, self-esteem refers to the evaluative aspect—the value or worth one assigns to oneself, which is an evaluative or affective dimension.
Given that the provided correct answer (in the answer field) is "cognitive; evaluative", we can reason why this pairing makes sense: self-schema involves cognitive organization of self-knowledge, while self-esteem involves evaluation of self-worth, i.e., an evaluative judgment.
If there were other options, the incorrect ones would typically mix these dimensions—for example claiming self-schema is affective or that self-esteem is cognitive—which would misclassify the underlying nature of the constructs.
In summary, with the standard theoretical framework:
- Self-schema = cognitive component of self-concept
- Self-esteem = evaluative component of self-concept
The given correct answer aligns with these established distinctions, even though the options list is missing in this instance.
