Abstract

Self-esteem is a concept developed from the personal experiences of a person in a society and refers to the assessment of a person about himself, so that it expresses an attitude of approval, or not, and indicates an extension in which a person believes to be capable, meaningful, dignified and successful in relation to his-her abilities, skills, social relationships and physical appearance, for example. Some studies indicate that technology has the potential to provide experiences that can alter the users' psychological states, including their self-esteem. This work contributes to a systematic literature review, with the objective of investigating technological solutions designed to influence self-esteem. Through automatic and manual search, we identified 3,668 papers, and we selected seven of them in the specific final selection and analyzed them based on inclusion and exclusion criteria. The results obtained helped us to understand what types of technology are used to affect/impact self-esteem, how technology has been used and the strategies for supporting this purpose, and the aspects of self-esteem the technology influences. Our results also indicate research challenges within this issue. (AU)
