The authors examined whether stability and level of self - esteem interact with daily hassles in predicting severity of depressive symptoms. As predicted, Time 2 depression scores (with Time 1 scores controlled) were highest among individuals with unstable self - esteem who reported considerable daily hassles. By contrast, self - esteem level did not interact with daily hassles to predict Time 2 depressive symptoms. These findings held even after negative self - concept items were eliminated from the depressive symptom inventories. Additional analyses revealed that self - esteem stability accounted for variance independent of the tendency to over generalize following failure or negative event attributional style. These findings support the contention that unstable self -esteem reflects fragile feelings of self - worth that exacerbate depressive symptoms under certain circumstances.
