Explain how having a negative self-schema affects one’s social interactions. How does social intelligence affect one’s responses in any given situation? How might a person’s self-guides impact his or her perspective on the world?

Here's a really good web site to begin to help you understand the question better and give you a good direction on where to take it:

If you beileve that you cannot do something, you lack necessary abilities or you will fail, this reduces your ability to succeed in any task. It often becomes a "self-fulfilling prophecy."

If you don't understand this concept, Google it.

I hope this helps. Thanks for asking,
