Great meeting (Zoom-wise) so many dedicated @INPPLtd practitioners at yesterday's international conference. Agreement that combining support for 'body' (INPP programme) and 'mind' (#AuthenticSelfEsteem Boost programme) will help so many children/young people.
@DyslexiaGCC @DyslexiaMission #authenticselfesteem protects children from #anxiety about transition to #highschool

Out of 250 children about to move to #highschool more than half showed moderate/high #anxiety about it (no surprise there). Anxiety was lowest in children with highest #authenticselfesteem. Support GENUINE #selfesteem to reduce #anxiety. So why don't we?

Another paper to "shed light on poor self-concept ... as a mechanism by which (parenting) impairs healthy emotional development" https://t.co/r5AX9Z8c6D
Our paper with @PJRMacaulay also shows #authenticselfesteem links parenting to #Wellbeing #selfesteem is key for #mentalhealth
But what is a '#challenge'? And what challenges in your past, present and future have helped, or could help, you feel pretty good about yourself?
Could #authenticselfesteem be a #mentalhealth vitamin? Watch this space.
Our working definition of #authenticselfesteem - a special type of #selfesteem - "a person's beliefs about their past, present and future experiences of facing #challenges (+ problems) and the associated evaluations of themselves that arise out of those experiences.”
Children and young people's #selfesteem is important but we keep finding it is far from optimum among many of them. It is NOT #narcissism. We will continue to push for efforts to support CYP's #authenticselfesteem, a special case. Possibility of a mental health 'disaster' looms!

Preparing a paper. Phase 1 tested if our #crossageteaching intervention could raise #authenticselfesteem in 11 yr olds. It did. Phase 2 tested if increases in #selfesteem predicted reduced anxiety about transition to high school. It did. #authenticselfesteem is important.
We think our #selfesteem is strongly related to our interpretations of our experiences of challenges and problems, we call it #authenticselfesteem Some data from pre-lockdown. With fewer challenges available to young people, might their #selfesteem suffer? I know what I think.
