I am collecting data to see how people respond to "think" or "feel" prompts of the Rosenberg Self-Esteem scale. I need 100 participants for the final project. Thank you in advance for your help!

This is an anonymous survey that will take less than 3 minutes to complete. This survey is for a college course that I am taking. It is examining the effects of "think" versus "feel" verbs by using the Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale. The only requirement is that you be 18 years or older and MALE. Thank you so much for your participation. https://bsu.qualtrics.com/jfe/form/SV_b7amrxEDnM9sMWF
The jangle fallacy of jingle-jangle fallacy describes when "two identical or almost identical things are considered different because they are labeled differently". Meanwhile, I've collected both Rosenberg Self-Esteem and Self-Concept Clarity across a couple of datasets now. They often exhibit similar effects, and also exhibit high collinearity, often with associations consistent with prior literature.
See:
Structure and Validity of Self-Concept Clarity Measures
Examining the Association Between Self-Concept Clarity and Self-Esteem on a Sample of Romanian Students
Also: Constantino, Wilson, Horowitz, & Pinel, 2006; Thomas & Gadbois, 2007; Wong, Vallacher, & Nowak, 2014
The Structure and Validity of Self-Concept Clarity Measures discusses whether self-concept clarity can predict or offer anything above and beyond self-esteem. They conclude, "SCC measures are consistently related to self-esteem. Further, many of the main effect associations observed of self-concept clarity appear to be due, at least in part, to the relationship of SCC measures with self-esteem. Interactions with self-esteem, such as those just described, offer evidence that selfconcept clarity is not redundant with self-esteem. However, it should be clear that research examining SCC-related self features would benefit from the inclusion of, and examination of, self-esteem."
Ultimately, this makes me question a construct/scale's usefulness if it can only be fully descriptive when considered in combination with something else. If self-concept clarity's usefulness is limited unless controlling for or interacting with self-esteem, is it truly much use at all or is more of a redundant construct?
I'm curious what people's thoughts are on this.
I get told that I’m cute, but the lack of success I have on dating apps overshadows the few real world compliments I do get. I’m convinced that to be happy I’m gunna have to bite the bullet and get rid of them. The thing that’s kept me around so long is the idea that “hey, you never know... your next girlfriend could be just one more swipe away! Maybe that girl you are supposed to date is making her profile as we speak! Don’t delete it!”
I remember hearing someone on here say that the average and slightly above average man is considered “ugly” by many women via online dating standards. Weather that’s true or not, I’m not sure, but it sure as fuck feels like it. I don’t know if I can take this type of toxic mentality. What I will say is that the day I deleted my Instagram a few months ago was the day my life seemed to get a little bit better. Maybe it can be that way when I delete these apps.
I'd give myself an 8 out of 10. I'm not like super popular nor good looking but im confident in myself as I've been trying to focus on becoming better and getting rid of negative things in my life. However sometimes it drops to like a 2 or 3 out of 10 but that's only when I'm feeling really down.
I need help. I am a college student currently doing my research. I looked at Rosenberg's Self-Esteem Scale but it only has 10 items and a 4-point scale. Some sources (that I can't find anymore) says that RSES has a 5-point scale version. If you ever have an access to what I'm looking for, please help me.
Does a person either have self esteem or doesn’t (at certain points), or is there a scale of higher and lower self esteem?
The scale I had for the past 10 years was far from accurate. In the past two years, the numbers on the scale could vary within 10 pounds. Like, I would weight myself and get 282, then weight again the minute after and get 276, then 278, then 286. I would usually weight myself 4-5 times in a row and take the average and consider that my current weight.
I got tired of this so I decided to get a new scale so I could track more accuratly my weight loss and really know if I've lost a pound or two. Before I got my new scale, my average was 279-282.
So, I just got my new scale this morning and decided to try it out. It read 292. I tried again, something might me wrong, my old scale gave me 279 this morning. 292. Again. 292. Always the same number, over and over again.
Yep... I guess my old scale was really off about 10 pounds and more and I'm heavier than I thought. It's rough. It's rough to have been proud to be around 280 for the past 2 weeks and then gain 10 pounds suddenly. It's rough to change my current weight to 292 when I changed it to 280 yesterday. I feel like crying after all the efforts I've put in and see the road is longer than expected.
I have to break my bad relation with food. I think it's time I try extended fasts for a more radical change...
It might be a good idea to list the volume alongside your guess, as many of the characters self of worth have drastically decreased and increased over the course of the show.
1= lowest.

I realize that the "get rid of the scale" thing cycles pretty regularly on this sub, so I guess I'm just taking my turn to share my experience with getting rid of it. I just figured I should acknowledge I know this is not a profound realization that is an original idea to get rid of the scale. I know I always like to read other people's experiences, so I'm adding my two cents. That said....
I have always been self-conscious. 4 years ago I was 50lbs heavier and completely lazy. I straightened my diet out, got to exercising, lost that weight and in doing so became simply obsessed with the scale - both my weight and the weight of my food. I couldn't look in the mirror without seeing all the flaws that were left instead of the triumphs I have had, because I was only seeing the number on the scale instead of the full composition of my body as a whole. I spent all of my time obsessing over what I was eating, when, how many calories and before I had even had the next meal I was figuring out what I could have to fill out my day's calories. I let my weight dictate what I did in my exercise which meant I spent significant amounts of time running, and did very little strength training.
Least to say, I burned out on everything. I burned out on tracking my food, I burned out on exercise, and I burned out on just feeling generally shitty about myself. So I got rid of my scale. I was tired of everything being shaped by what number the scale read out today - I just wanted to lead a normal life where everything wasn't determined by what I can and can't eat, or how much I have to exercise and when.
That was 6 weeks ago. I have no idea how much I weigh right now, but my waist/hip/bicep/tummy/calf/thigh measurements are exactly the same as they were when I was obsessing despite not counting calories diligently (though I admit I keep a rough count in my head just to make sure I'm not going buck wild or anything), and despite not running half as much as I was. Now I run the way I want, I acknowledge that it's okay to only run for 20 minutes OR do sprint/walk intervals where the running actually only makes up 7 minutes out of 21, but that it's equally okay to run for 6 or 7 miles slowly if the mood strikes me. I am fine that I'm not getting significantly faster, and I am enjoying myself much more. On top of that, I've added consistent strength training to my routine which has given me greater definition and generally has helped me to fee

i would say im at a solid 9 because i literally dont care at all about what people say
Because you're aware of all your flaws, while being aware of only a fraction of other people's flaws, by comparison, you think you're worse. You're not worse. It's just that you can't hide your own flaws from yourself as well as people can hide theirs from you.
You go in for one thing and before you know it you’ve been negged 30x.
I had one procedure done and I now understand why so many people become botched.
I was offered and heavily pushed to do 5 additional procedures. I said I was fine with my results and my surgeon replied “Well I’m not!”
He negged me so hard, he was visibly irritated when I told him I was happy with myself. On their ig page they preach that their job isn’t shallow because they “make people feel good about themselves” BS.
I just wanted to say that If you plan to see a surgeon you need to go in with clear boundaries or they will talk you into a face transplant.
If I took his advice and spent $15k on his procedures I would look visibly insane. 6 total procedures to my face at 30 is not the move. He tried very hard to make me feel bad about myself to line his pockets, he doesn’t care if I look botched.
Edit to add: don’t judge anyone who gets plastic surgery obviously but I’m never getting it done again. The experience felt dirty and unethical. I know I signed up for it so I take blame too.
