Self-esteem development across the life span: a longitudinal study with a large sample from Germany.

The author studies the development of self-esteem throughout the life cycle. The data were obtained from a longitudinal study in Germany that evaluated 3 out of 509 people aged 14 to 89 in 4 years. The measurement of self-esteem being used indicates that the measured value and the measurement value of the birth queue are very unchanged. Analysis of the potential growth curve suggests that it increases during puberty, adolescence, and adulthood, peaks at the age of 60, then enters older age, followed by a secondary trajectory throughout the life cycle ing. There was no effect of the group on the average self-esteem level or the shape of the trajectory. In addition, gender, educational level, individuals living in West Germany and East Germany have no difference in trajectory (ie, two regions from 1949 to 1990, Germany). However, the result suggests that employment status, household income, and satisfaction in work, personal relationships, and health areas will lead to a more positive and self-respecting history of life. These findings, individuals focused on factors that predict the trajectory of developmental with developmental stage, and successful problem that may be vulnerable for decrease in self-esteem (such as adolescence and old age) Because it is important.

Longitudinal study [7] contains eight of the evaluation of the national probability sample of 14 years, including 7,100 individuals of up to 30 years of age from the age of 14, to study the trajectory of the normative self-esteem of adolescence and adulthood. Self-esteem is easy to change and may be lower than adult adult population, and this age is an important period for self-esteem's healthy development. Individual differences are due to emotional stability, command, individual conscience and health.

There was no effect of the group on the average self-esteem level or the shape of the trajectory. In addition, this trajectory is not different between gender, education level, or those living in West Germany and East Germany (ie, two parts of Germany that were independent between 1949 and 1990).
