Tetrapartite Model of the Self

 


The tetrapartite model organizes features of self-identity into four categories: personal, relational, collective, public. The model posits that people tend to emphasize one aspect of their self-identity more than others which is evident in their preferences to engage in various behaviors and social activities.

The tetrapartite model has been evaluated using a questionnaire: See the Aspects of Identity Questionnaire.

In the SCOPES model, the tetrapartite model expands on the core "S" concept of the Self.
