Classical theoretical perspectives have implied that either global self-esteem has an impact on domain-specific self-esteem (top-down) or domain-specific self-esteem affects global self-esteem (bottom-up). The goal of the present research was to investigate whether classical top-down and bottom-up approaches could withstand a thorough test. To do so, we applied elaborate analytical methods in a four-wave longitudinal study across 6 years with preregistered hypotheses and data analyses. We analyzed data from N = 1,417 German participants (30.6% men, median of 12 to 13 years of education) with an average age of 47.0 years (SD = 12.4, range 18 to 88) at intake. Analyses using latent variable approaches for modeling intraindividual change provided evidence of top-down effects only. For example, participants with higher global self-esteem exhibited an increase in performance self-esteem but not vice versa. Our results also provided evidence of "vertical" associations between global and domain-specific self-esteem, that is, parallel development within the same time frame. In addition, the analyses revealed high rank order stability and a substantial trait component in global self-esteem and the self-esteem domains. The present findings have important theoretical and practical implications for the stability and development of self-esteem in adulthood and advance the understanding of global and domain-specific self-esteem in personality theory.

自上而下还是自下而上?来自成年期全球和特定领域自尊的纵向发展的证据。

经典理论观点暗示,要么全球自尊对特定领域的自尊(自上而下)产生影响,要么特定领域的自尊影响全球自尊(自下而上)。本研究的目的是调查经典的自上而下和自下而上的方法是否能够经受住彻底的考验。为此,我们在一项为期 6 年的四波纵向研究中应用了详尽的分析方法,并进行了预先注册的假设和数据分析。我们分析了 N = 1,417 名德国参与者(30.6% 为男性,受教育年限为 12 至 13 年)的数据,平均年龄为 47.0 岁(SD = 12.4,范围 18 至 88)。使用潜在变量方法对个体内变化进行建模的分析仅提供了自上而下效应的证据。例如,具有较高全球自尊的参与者表现出表现自尊的增加,但反之则不然。我们的结果还提供了全球自尊和特定领域自尊之间“垂直”关联的证据,即在同一时间框架内平行发展。此外,分析揭示了全球自尊和自尊领域的高排名稳定性和重要特征成分。目前的研究结果对成年期自尊的稳定性和发展具有重要的理论和实践意义,并促进了人格理论中对全局和特定领域自尊的理解。(PsycInfo 数据库记录 (c) 2022 APA,保留所有权利)。全球自尊与特定领域自尊之间的关联,即在同一时间框架内平行发展。此外,分析揭示了全球自尊和自尊领域的高排名稳定性和重要特征成分。目前的研究结果对成年期自尊的稳定性和发展具有重要的理论和实践意义,并促进了人格理论中对全局和特定领域自尊的理解。(PsycInfo 数据库记录 (c) 2022 APA,保留所有权利)。全球自尊与特定领域自尊之间的关联,即在同一时间框架内平行发展。此外,分析揭示了全球自尊和自尊领域的高排名稳定性和重要特征成分。目前的研究结果对成年期自尊的稳定性和发展具有重要的理论和实践意义,并促进了人格理论中对全局和特定领域自尊的理解。(PsycInfo 数据库记录 (c) 2022 APA,保留所有权利)。目前的研究结果对成年期自尊的稳定性和发展具有重要的理论和实践意义,并促进了人格理论中对全局和特定领域自尊的理解。(PsycInfo 数据库记录 (c) 2022 APA,保留所有权利)。目前的研究结果对成年期自尊的稳定性和发展具有重要的理论和实践意义,并促进了人格理论中对全局和特定领域自尊的理解。(PsycInfo 数据库记录 (c) 2022 APA,保留所有权利)。
