Abstract Details

2021, Master of Arts, Ohio State University, Psychology.
Past measurements of the self-concept fail to adequately capture the full extent of the construct. In an attempt to establish a novel measurement of the self-concept, participants generated a network of self-relevant aspects and described the extent to which they were connected. Researchers then used social network analysis methodologies to quantify these networks. We failed to find any evidence to support the validity of this new measure. These metrics do not correlate significantly with any previous measure that we used. Potential limitations and future directions are discussed.
