Self-esteem is a widely studied topic within psychology. Recently, the connections between self-esteem and important life outcomes have been debated because studies have produced inconsistent findings. Many of these inconsistencies may be due to the fact that most studies have focused on self-esteem level without incorporating other aspects of self-esteem. This books provides information on using the temporal stability of self-esteem to better understand feelings of self-worth; variations in multi-dimensional physical self-concept; religion and self-esteem; self-esteem as a predictor of academic success in health professional degree students; effects on the level and relations of self-esteem in the early transition to secondary school in Germany; the role of siblings for children's self-esteem; and several other topics.
