SelfSelf --ConceptConcept

Self-concept: is the totality of the one’s thoughts and feelings toward one’s self. It is one’s attitude toward one’s self. The private self refers to how I do or would like to see myself. The social self refers to how I am or would like to be seen. The actual self refers to how I think I am now and the ideal self is how I would like to be.
Marketers attempt to create product images that are consistent with the self-concept of their target market.
A 15 item semantic differential scale has been developed for this purpose. It contains terms such as rugged-delicate, thrifty-indulgent, and rational-emotional.

• Marketers have been criticized for focusing too much attention on the importance of being beautiful with beautiful being defined as young, and slim with a fairly narrow range of facial features.
• While virtually all societies appear to define and desire beauty, the intense exposure to products and advertisements focused on beauty in America today is unique.
• Critics argue that this concern leads individuals to develop self-concepts that are heavily dependent on their physical appearance rather than other equally or more important attributes.
