These strategies are successful, in that people tend to think of themselves as having more positive qualities and fewer negative qualities than others.[6] Although self-enhancement is seen in people with low self-esteem as well as with high self-esteem, these two groups tend to use different strategies.

People with low self-esteem use more indirect strategies, for example by avoiding situations in which their negative qualities will be noticeable.[7]
