[…] ils ont émis l'hypothèse que les personnes ayant une haute estime de soi subiraient une diminution de soi de manière positive et expérimenteraient l'auto-transcendance et l'unité avec les autres.

La jalousie simple commence comme un sentiment d'inconfort à la perspective de perdre la récompense ou l'affection à quelqu'un d'autre. Dans la jalousie complexe, la perspective de la perte se sent comme une auto-diminution injustifiable; vous devenez plus petit et moins précieux, parce que quelqu'un vous manipule ou vous trahit. 2, record 2, French, - auto%2Ddiminution
