This study examined factors affecting negative feelings with self-presentation in daily life. In this study, self-presenter’s internal process of self-presentation with negative feelings was assumed to be constructed by 3 steps (motivations for self-presentation, cognitions on self-presentation, and negative feelings with self-presentation). 358 undergraduates and graduates were asked to recall the event that he or she experienced negative feelings with self-presentation and to answer questions about 3 steps of self-presenter’s internal process and personality traits (praise seeking , rejection avoidance, self-monitoring (including sensitivity to expressive behavior of others and ability to modify self-presentation). As a result, it was revealed that rejection avoidance and ability to modify self-presentation of self-monitoring regulated self-presentation with negative feelings. Moreover, the results suggested sex differences of factors affecting negative feelings with self-presentation. In female, negative feelings with self-presentation were affected by cognitions on self-presentation. In male, on the other hand, negative feelings with self-presentation were directly affected by personality traits and motivations for self-presentation without being affected by cognitions on self-presentation.
