Abstract
The paper deals with the issue on the relations of self-esteem, anxiousness and anxiety at teenagers. The aim of the
research was to identify the influence of anxiousness on self-esteem and influence of self-esteem on anxiety within a sample
of adolescents and intersexual difference in variables. The research sample consisted of 2 374 adolescents (females n =
1149) out of which 356 suffer from the symptoms of anxiety disorders (ADS; females n= 263). The variables were gained
through the revised Rosenberg self-esteem scale and SUDS scales for anxiousness and anxiety findings. Using statistical
analyses it was found that females reached a lower average score in self-esteem (t = 10.512; p <.001) and a higher
average score in anxiousness (t = 10.132; p <.001). Similar results were achieved also at the sample of adolescents in
variables of self-esteem (t = 3.611; p <.001) and anxiety (t = 5.845; p <.001). Furthermore, was found that there is a
statistically significant predictable relation between research variables: anxiousness is a predictor of self-esteem (F =
2495.490, p<.001) at a non-ADS sample of respondents, whereby ADS respondents´ self-esteem is a significant predictor
of anxiety (F = 83.810, p<.001).
期刊介绍:
Journal of Psychological and Educational Research is a scientific review, appearing biannually, which publishes scientific materials belonging to all the fields of psychology. The emphasis falls on empirical studies, but it may include reviews, theoretical or methodological papers in psychology. Empirical papers with a strong theoretical framework and/or models of computational parameters are particularly encouraged. Theoretical papers of scholarly substance on abnormality may be appropriate if they advance understanding of a specific issue directly relevant to psychology and fall within the length restrictions of a regular (not extended) article. As a journal that focuses on researches within a quantitative, scientific remit, Journal of Psychological and Educational Research places particular emphasis on the publishing of high-quality empirical reports based on experimental and behavioural studies
