Abstract
The purpose of this study was to examine the relationship between the global self-worth, the domain-specific self-evaluation, and the domain-specific importance for high school students. The self-evaluations and importance were assessed physical appearance, athletic competence, academic competence, relationship with parents, and relationship with friends. The results showed the global self-worth and domain-specific self-evaluations were negative, for female. The physical appearance self-evaluation was strongly related to the global self-worth. It was suggested that the influence on global self-worth of the domain-specific importance is different from domain-specific self-evaluations, by gender and grade.
