Scoring and Interpretation Information


The minimum total score is 0 and the maximum is 30, with higher
scores representing higher self-esteem. Results consist of four raw
scores and four percentiles: Total self-esteem, self-competence
(sum of first five items), self-liking (sum of second five items) and
self-competence minus self liking (SC-SL). Percentiles indicate how
the client's self-esteem compares to Sinclair's adult sample.

Sinclair et al. (2010) found that among a sample of 503 adults (M =


44.7 years, SD = 16.3) the average self-esteem score was 22.62
(SD = 5.8). The self-competence subscale had a mean of 12.01
(SD=2.82). The mean for self-liking was 10.62 (SD = 3.35).
Additionally, when the raw self-liking score was taken away from the
raw self-competence score (SC-SL), the average difference was
1.39 (SD=2.15).

Despite higher self-esteem not always being more adaptive,


evidence shows that self-esteem is negatively and linearly related to
disorders of mood and anxiety (Greenberg et al., 1992; Lightsey et
al., 2006; Neustadt et al., 2006; Torrey et al., 2000), so higher self-
esteem has been shown to be protective against some mental
disorders.
