DESCRIPTION: (Adapted from Investigator's Abstract) This proposal is an application for an Independent Scientist Award for the PI, Jennifer Crocker, Ph.D. to enable her to focus her efforts on research on contingencies of self esteem (SE), and extend that work to test hypotheses about the role of SE in depression, SE and aging, and SE and culture. SE is a central aspect of mental health, and thousands of studies of SE have been published. Yet, several basic disagreements and confusions regarding the nature and functioning of SE remain unresolved. The PI's current R01 grant addresses these basic issues, as well as the role of contingencies of SE in vulnerability to stigma. The K02 award would enable the PI to extend this research to test the following hypothesis: 1) Contingencies of SE, in conjunction with relevant life events, pose a risk for depression mediated through instability of SE, and possibly increases in the stress hormone cortical. 2) Contingencies of SE become more internal, and possibly lower overall, across the lifespan, and this shift in contingencies of SE can account both for continuity of levels of SE across the lifespan, despite many losses associated with aging, and for increases in stability of SE with age. 3) Cultural differences in the direction as well as possibly the content of contingencies of SE can account for the relatively low average levels of SE in Asians and Asian-Americans.

描述：（改编自研究者摘要）该提案是 为 PI Jennifer Crocker 申请独立科学家奖， 博士使她能够集中精力研究自我的突发事件 尊重（SE），并将这项工作扩展到检验有关 SE 在 抑郁症、SE 与衰老、SE 与文化。 SE是心理的一个核心方面 健康，并且已经发表了数千份SE研究。然而，几个基本 关于SE的性质和功能的分歧和困惑仍然存在 未解决。 PI 当前的 R01 拨款解决了这些基本问题，以及 SE 意外事件在容易遭受耻辱方面的作用。 K02 奖将使 PI 能够扩展这项研究以测试以下内容 假设：1）SE的意外事件，结合相关的生活事件， 通过SE的不稳定性带来抑郁症的风险，并且可能 皮质应激激素增加。 2）SE的突发事件变得更多 在整个生命周期中，内部的，并且总体上可能较低，并且这种转变 SE 的突发事件可以解释整个 SE 水平的连续性 寿命，尽管与衰老相关的许多损失，以及增加 SE随年龄的稳定性。 3）方向和文化差异 可能SE的意外事件的内容可以解释相对较低的 亚洲人和亚裔美国人的 SE 平均水平。
