The Effect of Self-Esteem and Locus of Control on Resilience: The Mediating Role of Affects
Abstract
This study examines the relationship of psychological resilience to self-esteem, and positive and negative affect. A theoretically-supported model is tested via path analysis. Participants were survivors of the 1999 earthquake (N=363, 224 men and 138 women). Psychological resilience was measured by Ego-Resilience Scale (Block & Kremen, 1996). Rosenberg Self-Esteem Inventory (Short form) was used in measuring self-esteem levels of the participants. Positive and Negative Affect Scale (Watson, Clark &
Tellegen, 1988) was used in order to measure positive and negative affect. Rotter’s Internal-External Locus of Control Scale (Rotter, 1966) was used to identify participants’ locus of control. Self-esteem and locus of control formed the cognitive dimension which is based on subjective perceptions and beliefs. In the second dimension, it is assumed that self-perceptions have great impact on emotions. Finally, it is tested that, depending on the verification of the first two assumptions, a new cognitive evaluation is experienced because of the interaction of cognitive and affective dimensions. Lisrel 8.5 was used in testing the model. The relationships between the concepts mentioned above were tested using covariance matrix. The mediating role of the positive and negative affect was tested in the model. Self-esteem and locus of control as cognitive factors are related to affect dimension. Both positive and negative affect predicted resilience.
