Morris Rosenberg is recognized among Jewish contributors to Philosophy & Social Sciences — Sociologist who created the widely used self-esteem scale
Rosenberg created the Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale, a concise ten-item questionnaire introduced in his 1965 book Society and the Adolescent Self-Image, which became the most widely used measure of global self-worth in the social sciences. His empirical work established self-concept as a rigorous, measurable field of sociological and psychological research. He is listed among Jewish sociologists in Jewish biographical references (Jinfo).
