Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Strong core self-evaluations refer to individuals having a positive self-regard, believing in their abilities, and having a sense of control over their environment. When individuals with these characteristics are also sensitive to the concerns of others, they are more likely to exhibit positive work behavior because they are able to balance their own needs with the needs of others and work effectively in a team. Focusing entirely on oneself (B) or on evaluations of the self as apart from a group (C) may result in a lack of social awareness and negative work behavior. Individuals who prefer to be directed by others rather than assuming individual responsibility (D) may lack the confidence and autonomy associated with strong core self-evaluations, and may also exhibit negative work behavior.
