Preferred term

core self-evaluations  

Definition(s)

  • The term core self-evaluations refers to fundamental, global evaluations that individuals make about their worth as individuals, including whether they have the capability to handle the tasks and challenges they face in life and the extent to which they feel in control of their lives. When faced with a problem or challenge, individuals with high core self-evaluations believe, “I can handle this problem.” Individuals' tendencies to evaluate themselves negatively or positively may affect their evaluations of others and the world in general.
