    Self-perception is a person’s view of him/herself or of any other physical or mental attributes that

    constitute the concept of self is considered as Self-perception. Such understanding of self may involve
    self-knowledge or distortions. Self-perception can further be categorized into actual self, ideal self,
    ought self. The actual self is the qualities people think they actually have, the ideal self is the qualities
    people which people would like to have, and the ought self is the qualities that people think they should
    possess.

    There are several factors that help people to change their self-perception such as reference groups and
    feedback from others. People often try to associate themselves with certain groups and when they
    change their group they change their self-perceptions accordingly. Take an example of a poor man
    having a low income vs when he has a high income, he will have a significant change in his self-
    perception. Moreover, feedbacks also helps to change a person’s self-perception because humans adjust
    their personality based on the feedback they receive from others.
