This thesis examines the importance of self-esteem, its dominant role in psychological research, and how low self-esteem is implicated in a wide variety of emotional and behavioural disorders. The Sociometry Model of Self-esteem is used to explain the relationship between self-esteem and psychological distress and portrays self-esteem as a guage by which people monitor their level of social inclusion. Four case-studies are presented.
