Yes it does.

Self-raising flour will of course cause the cake to rise a lot more while cooking.

Plain flour does not have this same effect. The recipe should indicate how much of which type of flour to use and what the final result should be.

If you use more self-raising flour it will tend to have more 'air-bubbles' giving it a lighter and 'fluffier' texture.
