What is the Meaning of Self-Image? As you might imagine, self-image is related to what you see when you look in a mirror—however, it goes much deeper than that. Self-image refers to how we see ourselves on a more global level, both internally and externally. Random House Dictionary defines self-image as “the idea, conception, or mental image one has of oneself.” The Mountain State Centers for Independent Living explains further: “Self-image is how you perceive yourself. It is a number of self-impressions that have built up over time… These self-images can be very positive, giving a person confidence in their thoughts and actions, or negative, making a person doubtful of their capabilities and ideas.” What you see when you look in the mirror and how you picture yourself in your head is your self-image. As one of many “self” concepts, it’s closely related to a few others. The Elements and Dimensions of Self-Image Although there is no widely agreed-upon framework for the aspects of self-image, there are some proposed types and dimensions. These come from Suzaan Oltmann, an independent distributor at one of South Africa’s FET Colleges. The three elements of a person’s self-image are: The way a person perceives or thinks of him/herself. The way a person interprets others’ perceptions (or what he thinks others think) of him/herself. The way a person would like to be (his ideal self).
