<h2>Self-concept, self-esteem, social self and self-knowledge.</h2>
Explanation:
According to psychologists like Carlo Rogers and Abraham Maslow the idea of The Self is more complex than we think.
The Self is formed by other selves, specifically, by self-concept, self-esteem, social self and self-knowledge. All this areas formed our self-perception, what we completely think about us. We can define each area:
Self-concept: this self is about identity, it's also called self-construction or even self-identity. It's a collection about one-self. We can described as the cognitive self "I'm good in math" for example.
Self-esteem: this is the subjective evaluation that we constantly do about ourselves, it depends on our mood in those moments, that's why is subjective. Thoughts like "I am useful" are the kind of self-evaluation we do after something good. For example, the self-concept says "I am good in math", while the self-esteem says "I feel so good solving math problems"
Social self: this self uses self-concept and how can affects others. Basically, it's a multidimensional analysis about self-concept from a social perspective, which forms our social identity.
Self-knowledge: this self requires self-awareness and self-consciousness. Self-knowledge is the interaction of both with the self-concept, "who am I" or "what am I like", these are the kind of question that self-knowledge try to answer. It's like the mental representation about one-self, who do we see ourselves, which requires a huge introspection.
So, basically, those are the four selves within us.
It is used to help people better understand their interpersonal communication and relationships. It is a matrix created in the 1950's with fourquadrants that visualize the self based known or unknown to self and others. The four selves include the "open", "blind", "hidden", and "unknown".
