Fortunately for physical educators, the physical domain is well represented in self-perception content in young children and appears to continue throughout the life span. Typically in self-perception profiles, it has been divided into physical appearance and physical ability constructs, as these may draw quite different perceptual responses. Harter’s instrument, for example, includes an athletic competence subscale that assesses perceived ability in sport and games,, and a physical appearance sub-scale that taps general feelings about looks about also face and hair, height and weight.
