A Validation study of the Korean Version of State Self-Esteem Scale

The present study proceeded with 3 experiments in order to propose a trustworthy, valid and multi-dimensional criterion for measuring self-esteem. To accomplish such goal, validation of the Korean version of State Self-Esteem Scale (K-SSES), which examines the measurement of short-lived changes in self-esteem was conducted. In study 1, Twenty items originally developed by Heatherton and Polivy (1991) went through a translation and reverse-translation procedure to be adapted prior to data collection and three consecutive studies that support the scales’ validity were presented. Psychometric analyses revealed that the K-SSES has 3 correlated factors: performance, general, and social self-esteem. Statistical analysis revealed that the K-SSES is a reliable and valid measurement for Korean. In study 2 and 3, effects of self-esteem enhancement intervention on K-SSES scores were examined. And it was concluded that the K-SSES is sensitive to these state-like change of self-esteem. Therefore, it was supported that the K-SSES was sensitive enough to measure the change of state self-esteem for Koreans and to distinguish the differences among sub-scales. These results suggest that K-SSES can be used for measuring clinical change in self-esteem and untangling the confounded relation between mood and self-esteem, and so on.
