本研究关注的是青少年早期自尊轨迹的差异，而不是所有儿童的平均变化。从128名青少年的纵向数据，获得了2年的时间，包括从小学到初中的过渡。聚类分析揭示了四种明显不同的自尊轨迹：持续高（35%），长期低（13%），急剧下降（21%）和小幅增加（31%）。预测轨迹的尝试只取得了部分成功。同伴社会支持是最强的预测因子，但它与自尊的关系似乎比人们想象的更受限制。讨论认为，在青春期早期的经验，以及对预防性干预的设计和评估的影响的差异。
The present study focused on differences in self-esteem trajectory in early adolescence rather than on average change across all children. Longitudinal data from 128 adolescents were obtained over a 2-year period that encompassed the transition from elementary school to junior high school. Cluster analysis revealed four markedly divergent self-esteem trajectories: consistently high (35%), chronically low (13%), steeply declining (21%), and small increase (31%). Attempts to predict trajectories were only partially successful. Peer social support was the strongest predictor, but its relation to self-esteem appears more circumscribed than had been thought. The discussion considers differences in the experience of early adolescence, as well as implications for the design and evaluation of preventive intervention.
