Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale
The Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale (RSES) is a 10-item unidimensional instrument designed to measure global self-esteem in adolescents and adults. Developed by Morris Rosenberg in 1965, the RSES is one of the most widely used and shortest self-esteem measures in social and clinical psychology research. Its brevity, ease of administration, and robust psychometric properties have made it a standard reference point for self-esteem assessment across cultures and clinical populations.
