自尊可以源自与重要他人的关系（关系自尊）。然而，目前尚不清楚关系自尊对心理健康的重要性以及来自他人的社会支持是否会促进关系自尊。本研究的目的是探讨受艾滋病毒影响的儿童的关系自尊与多种心理健康指标之间的关系。我们还研究了他人的社会支持如何影响关系自尊。结果表明，关系自尊与心理健康呈正相关。来自重要他人而非其他人的支持预示着关系自尊的增加。讨论了未来研究的意义和方向。
Self-esteem can be derived from the relationships with significant others (relational self-esteem). However, it is unclear what the importance of relational self-esteem is for mental health and whether social support from others promotes relational self-esteem. The aim of this study was to examine the relationship between relational self-esteem and a multitude of indicators of psychological well-being among children affected by HIV. We also examined how social support from others would affect relational self-esteem. Results indicated that relational self-esteem was positively associated with psychological well-being. Support from significant others rather than others predicted increased relational self-esteem. Implications and directions for future research are discussed.
