Round 1 Survey
The findings of the self-esteem scale were essential for establishing a baseline for our drumming group in terms of self-confidence. The results also provided us an insight into whether or not the students that would choose to join such a club would be naturally high in confidence or vice versa. Luckily, the results revealed that we had a very well distributed group, with a range of confidence levels.
The Rosenberg Scale dictates that a score of 14 or lower indicates low self confidence. Though there were no students to fell below 15, there were two students who exhibit relatively low confidence as compared to the rest of the group, scoring 15 and 17, respectively. These students were more likely to strongly agree with statements such as:
On the flip side, about 3 students scored 28-30 points, exhibiting high self confidence, which is denoted by a score of 23 or higher. These students were likely to strongly disagree with the statements above and were more likely to strongly agree with statements such as:
All of the other students fell under the "average self-esteem" section of the scale, meaning they scored between 15 and 23 points. What's particularly interesting about this group is the wide range of answers provided, even though they technically possess "average" self-esteem. For example, there were four different instances in which students in this category would agree with the statement "I am able to do things as well as most other people", and yet would also agree with the statement "I feel I don't have much to be proud of".
The results showed a particularly diverse group of students, ranging in confidence levels that are relatively low to extremely high. This verifies that the group is a good sample of the students that we targeted (Division II).

Though there were no students to fell below 15, there were two students who exhibit relatively low confidence as compared to the rest of the group, scoring 15 and 17, respectively. These students were more likely to strongly agree with statements such as:
- Sometimes I think I'm no good at all.
- I wish I could like myself more.
- Basically I think I'm a failure.

- I am able to do things as well as most other people.
- I feel I'm as good a person as anybody else.
- I feel pretty good about myself.
