Naturalistic Observation Study of Relationship Between Positive Self-Affirmation and Self-Esteem

This is a naturalistic observational study aimed at assessing the relationship between an individual's positive self-affirmation and their self esteem. Positive self-affirmation will be measured as if the individual engaged in the behavior prompted by a poster that indicates to "High five me if you did a good job today". Self-esteem will be measured through the individual's posture over a two-minute time period during which the time spent in a confident, self-assured posture will be recorded. The expected outcome is to see a positive relationship between engagement in positive self-affirmation and time spent in a confident posture.
