Abstract
This study is a review of factors related to self-concept clarity. After reviewing empirical studies, four highly recognized correlations are found: Self-concept clarity positively predicts self-esteem, Social comparison negatively predicts self-concept clarity, Negative emotions are negatively correlated with self-concept clarity, and Depression was negatively correlated with self-concept clarity. In addition, some correlations proved by empirical studies but not highly cited are also sorted out in the seventh part of this paper.
