ObjectivesThe present pre‐registered study examined the reciprocal day‐to‐day associations between global self‐esteem and self‐concept clarity and their incremental validity with respect to daily life satisfaction, positive affect, and negative affect.MethodsWe used intensive longitudinal data from 153 adult workers (45.1% women), over a period of 31 days. Data were analyzed using dynamic structural equation modeling.ResultsResults attested higher global self‐esteem and self‐concept clarity mean levels for older vs. younger participants, and lower global self‐esteem and self‐concept clarity variability for older vs. younger participants. Furthermore, global self‐esteem and self‐concept clarity were correlated at a cross‐sectional daily level, yet only self‐concept clarity states positively predicted subsequent global self‐esteem states, while global self‐esteem states did not predict subsequent self‐concept clarity states. Daily global self‐esteem and daily self‐concept clarity further predicted subsequent daily higher life satisfaction and positive affect, respectively.ConclusionOverall, our findings shed light on the short‐term relationships linking global self‐esteem and self‐concept clarity, pointing to their discriminant validity in predicting individuals' subjective well‐being.

成年工人样本中总体自尊和自我概念清晰度之间的日常关联及其与主观幸福感的关系


目的本预注册研究检查了整体自尊和自我概念清晰度之间的日常相互关联，以及它们在日常生活满意度、积极情感和消极情感方面的增量有效性。方法我们使用了来自 153 名参与者的密集纵向数据。成年工人（45.1% 为女性），为期 31 天。使用动态结构方程模型对数据进行分析。结果结果证明，与年轻参与者相比，老年参与者的整体自尊和自我概念清晰度平均水平较高，而与年轻参与者相比，整体自尊和自我概念清晰度变异性较低。此外，总体自尊和自我概念清晰度在每日横截面水平上相关，但只有自我概念清晰度状态可以积极预测随后的总体自尊状态，而总体自尊状态不能预测随后的自我概念清晰度状态。每日整体自尊和每日自我概念清晰度分别进一步预测了随后每日较高的生活满意度和积极情绪。结论总体而言，我们的研究结果揭示了整体自尊和自我概念清晰度之间的短期关系，指出了它们之间的关系。预测个体主观幸福感的判别效度。
