The Self-Concept

by Ruth C. Wylie is a seminal, highly comprehensive psychometric critique originally published in 1961 and later greatly expanded into a massive two-volume revised edition (1974 and 1979). Wylie’s work serves as a foundational academic cornerstone in psychology for evaluating how researchers measure and theorize about the human "self". Rather than presenting a standalone theory of personality, her books offer a rigorous methodological survey of the vast, existing research literature surrounding self-referent constructs, self-esteem, and self-regard.
