An important work from a leading scholar, this book explores selfdevelopment from early childhood to adulthood. Susan Harter traces the normative stages that define the emergence of many selfprocesses, including selfesteem. She also addresses individual differences and societal influences on selfdevelopment. Presenting pioneering empirical research, Harter shows that increasingly mature features of the self have both benefits and liabilities for psychological adjustment. The book highlights the causes and consequences of different types of selfrepresentations, including those that are unrealistically negative or positive.New to This Edition*Reflects more than a decade of conceptual, empirical, and methodological advances.*Provides a broader sociocultural framework for understanding selfdevelopment.*Chapters on emerging adulthood, selfesteem and physical appearance, selfprocesses in the classroom, motivation, crosscultural issues, and the quest for authenticity.*Expanded chapters on childhood, adolescence, and the selfconscious emotions.*Increased attention to the liabilities of our contemporary preoccupation with the self.
