Impact of relationship between general and vocational self-esteem of future psychologists and educators on their professional development.

Abstract

The inner world of the individual, his identity and self-esteem has long attracted the attention of philosophers, scientists and artists. Human behaviour is always somehow related to man’s ideas about himself and about what person he ought or would like to be. In the article we examined the issue of the relationship and interdependence of general and professional self-esteem of future psychologists and educators, since it is of great interest whether the indices of the overall personal self-esteem influence the professional activity or not.

Key words:

self-esteem, self-awareness, professional self-esteem.
