Ruprecht, Mark R.Helwig, Nathaniel E.2017-03-202017-03-202016-04-23https://hdl.handle.net/11299/185270We examined self-esteem development across the lifespan from ages 10 to 80 using responses to the Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale obtained over the World Wide Web between the years of 2011 and 2014. The dataset comprises a large and globally diverse sample of 45,185 individuals (53.2% non-U.S.) representing 171 countries from six continents. Using a nonparametric regression approach, we investigated whether the self-esteem developmental trajectory differed across gender and socioeconomic region.enSelf-Esteem, Development, Gender, Culture, Socioeconomic, NonparametricPresentation
