摘要：

The current literature describes a number of mechanisms by which self-esteem is affected and regulated. Using exemplars from three different families of such mechanisms-cognitive consistency, social comparison, and value expression-the three studies reported here (in addition to others in the literature) indicate that these qualitatively different mechanisms are not independent of one another: The evidence is interpreted as showing the unitary nature of self-esteem regulation and that individuals tend to be satisficers rather than maximizers regarding self-esteem.
