What is one key factor in adolescent self-esteem?

  1. physical attractiveness

  2. academic performance

  3. quality of relationships

  4. perceived social status

The correct answer is: physical attractiveness

One key factor in adolescent self-esteem is the physical attractiveness. While all factors can play a role in an individual's self-esteem, physical attractiveness is often highlighted as an important aspect during the adolescent years. Academic performance, quality of relationships, and perceived social status can also contribute to one's self-esteem, however, these factors are not as heavily influenced by external appearance as physical attractiveness is. Additionally, physical attractiveness is often highly valued by society, making it a significant factor in how individuals view themselves during their teenage years.
