Self Aspects differentiate the self under different contexts. Our view of self is comprised from a complex mix of conceptions of our characteristics under different roles and varying evaluative concepts.

A few different evaluative concepts that we may use to differentiate a single self aspect are:

Physical,
Mental,
Emotional,
Social,
Work/Financial and
Spiritual.
