Self-criticism involves how a person evaluates themselves (See also: Core self-evaluations and Self-efficacy and Self-awareness).
Maladaptive self-criticism (Hyper self-criticism)
See also: Self-talk
Psychology does study maladaptive self-criticism (Hyper self-critical evaluations that are overcritical in terms of false criticism and/or criticism that is out of proportion in terms of degree).
In a negative sense, Science Direct defines:Self-criticism is defined as the tendency to engage in negative self-evaluation that results in feelings of worthlessness, failure, and guilt when expectations are not met; it was originally seen as particularly relevant to the development of depression."[1]
