Assessing Social Support, Self-Esteem, Achievement Motivation among Instagram-based Artists: A Correlational Study

This study examines the psychological dynamics of self-esteem, social support, and achievement motivation among artists, with a particular focus on Instagram influencers. Self-esteem, the subjective evaluation of one’s worth, plays a pivotal role in shaping artists’ perceptions of themselves and their work. Social support networks, both online and offline, provide artists with emotional, practical, and informational support, influencing their resilience in the face of digital pressures. Additionally, achievement motivation drives artists’ pursuit of success in the competitive realm of social media. Through empirical analysis and synthesis of existing research, this study aims to elucidate these psychological mechanisms and provide insights into fostering a supportive environment for artists, especially Instagram influencers.
