    The self-concept is the individual's own characteristics, the beliefs of what one is, what one wants to be, what one manifests and wishes to manifest, it is not innate, but is formed from childhood and conditioned by the experience with family, friends and culture. That is why, when there is a low self-concept, emotional disturbances begin to predominate; anxiety, depression and/or irrational beliefs, which take the form of needs. The objective of the research was to determine the correlation between the dimensions of self-concept and irrational beliefs in high school adolescents. A non-experimental, descriptive, cross-sectional research design was used, with a sample composed of 134 participants between 14 and 18 years of age, with a mean of 15.7 years. The psychological items applied were the AF-5 self-concept questionnaire and the Calvete and Cardeñoso-TCI test of irrational beliefs. The results did not show normal distribution among the variables, so we proceeded with the application of non-parametric statistics such as Spearman's Rho test, determining that the dimensions of self-concept are directly related to irrational beliefs, social self-concept and perfectionism (Rho=values close to 0.1; p=<0.5) and indirectly (Rho=values close to -0.1; p=<0.5). Concluding that in adolescents the better the self-concept, the lower the irrational beliefs, with the exception of the irrational belief of perfectionism that is amplified by having a good self-concept
