Facets of self-esteem at an implicit level? Investigation of implicit-explicit correlations and development of four IATs

► Investigated implicit-explicit correlations focusing on facets of self-esteem (SE). ► Meta-analysis examined correlations between a Standard IAT and facets of SE. ► Four new IATs measuring facets of self-esteem were developed. ► CFA showed that facets of self-esteem can be distinguished at an implicit level. ► Significant implicit-explicit correlations were found for social self-esteem.
