Abstract

Self-esteem is a form of evaluation that individuals carry out towards themselves. Self-esteem is the self-esteem that a person has. For people with disabilities, self-esteem is often influenced by additional challenges, such as social stigma, limited accessibility, and psychological barriers. This journal review aims to identify and analyze factors that influence self-esteem in young adults with disabilities, including self-acceptance, social support, personal achievement, and an inclusive environment. The results of the analysis show that social support and self-acceptance play a significant role in increasing self-esteem, while stigma and lack of equal opportunities can be obstacles that reduce self-confidence. Therefore, collective efforts from various parties are needed to create an environment that supports the development of self-esteem for people with disabilities, so that they can live meaningful, equal and productive lives.
