Theorists and researchers have raised the question of whether self - esteem has similar meanings and correlates in individualistic and collectivist cultures. This study examined the cross - cultural equivalence of the rosenberg self - esteem scales in four countries and compared its association with parental warmth and acceptance and depressed mood. Participants were 11th graders in the united states (n = 422), the czech republic (n =490) , china (n = 502) , and korea (n = 497). Cross - cultural similarities in the factor structure of the self - esteem scale and in the relations of self - esteem to other variables were more striking than cross cultural differences. Across cultures, parental warmth was significantly related to both positive and negative self - image, each of which in turn was related significantly to depressive symptomatology. There was little evidence for the hypothesis that self - esteem would more strongly mediate the relation between parental warmth and adolescent depressive symptoms in the more individualistic (as opposed to collectivist) cultures.
