本研究的目的是评估在16年的时间内,基于年龄和种族的人内自尊变化的变化。我们使用分层线性模型,数据来自3,617名25岁及以上的成年人,他们接受了最多4次采访。平均而言,在研究期间,自尊心有所增加。与此同时,围绕这一趋势观察到显着的年龄差异,年轻人经历了自尊心的增加和老年人经历了下降。一般来说,种族差异不明显的平均水平或变化率的自尊。然而,一个显着的年龄×种族的相互作用表明,晚年的自尊下降是陡峭的黑人相比,白人。这些研究结果表明,存在的年龄和种族为基础的分层方面的自尊。这一领域今后的工作应审查老年人自尊心下降对健康和福祉的影响。(PsycInfo数据库记录(c)2016阿帕,保留所有权利)
The purpose of this research was to assess age-and race-based variation in within-persons changes in self-esteem over a 16-year period. We used hierarchical linear modeling with data from 3,617 adults 25 years of age and older who were interviewed up to 4 times. Self-esteem increased, on average, over the course of the study period. At the same time, significant age variations around this trend were observed, with younger adults experiencing increases in self-esteem and older adults experiencing decreases. In general, race differences were not evident with respect to average levels or rates of change in self-esteem. However, a significant Age× Race interaction suggested that late-life declines in self-esteem were steeper for Blacks compared with Whites. These findings suggest the presence of age-and race-based stratification with respect to self-esteem. Future work in this area should examine the health and well-being effects of declining self-esteem during old age.(PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2016 APA, all rights reserved)
