Mission Connection, a mental health provider that specializes in outpatient treatment programs in California, Virginia, and Washington, has released a new guide on self-esteem scale tests.

San Juan Capistrano, United States, June 26, 2025 -- The latest guide covers major clinical self-esteem screening metrics, including the Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale and the Coopersmith Self-Esteem Inventory, comparing their accuracy and the settings and demographics they are most suited for. The guide also offers interested readers resources to evaluate their own self-esteem, which can assist in screening for conditions like anxiety or depression.

Self-esteem, a person’s sense of self-worth, is one of the most influential factors in how individuals perceive themselves and interact with the world. Because low self-esteem levels are often a precursor to or a symptom of a number of mental health issues, many psychologists use clinically validated assessment tools as starting points for therapy and a measurement of personal growth and psychological well-being throughout treatment.

According to Mission Connection’s guide, the most widely employed self-esteem tests are the Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale and the Coopersmith Self-Esteem Inventory. The former was developed by Morris Rosenberg in 1965, and it consists of 10 statements designed to reflect an individual’s overall feelings of self-worth. The final score is determined by how strongly participants agree or disagree with these statements - lower scores tend to reflect lower self-esteem levels, allowing the individual to use their results to guide their lifestyle choices or treatment options.

On the other hand, the Coopersmith Self-Esteem Inventory screening tool is more complex, featuring 58 questions that measure self-esteem in four different subscales: general self-esteem, social self-esteem, academic self-esteem, and family self-esteem. Mission Connection’s guide notes that because of its relative complexity, this tool is more suited for educational settings, particularly for young children and adolescents.

Other notable self-esteem metrics include the Hare Self-Esteem Scale, which focuses on personal identity, and the Lawrence Self-Esteem Questionnaire, which, like the Coopersmith Self-Esteem Inventory, focuses on self-worth in academic, social, and family contexts. Regardless, Mission Connection says that all tests are beneficial for tracking personal growth, identifying areas for improvement, and building confidence over time. Individuals who are aware of their progress often experience a sense of accomplishment that motivates further growth, ultimately empowering them to become more resilient in life.
