The present research studies the level of self-esteem, loneliness and depression in a sample of unemployed university graduates, taking into consideration the duration of unemployment. Thus, the subjects are divided into three groups: recently unemployed (1 month and less), moderately unemployed (6-7 months), and chronically unemployed (11-12 months). The instruments used are The Social Self-Esteem Inventory, The U.C.L.A. Loneliness Scale, and the Beck Depression Scale. The results show that the level of self-esteem is significantly lower for the chronically unemployed as compared to the recently unemployed. On the other hand, loneliness is significantly greater for chronically unemployed than for recently unemployed. Finally, depression is significantly greater for the moderate group as compared to the recent one, and for chronically unemployed than for the recently unemployed. The results for the unemployed university graduates are significantly different from those obtained from non graduates on two variables: the recently unemployed graduates have a greater self-esteem than recently unemployed non graduates. Moreover, the chronically unemployed graduates experience more depression as compared to their non graduate counterparts.

First, middle, and last names were rated on 5-point scales. Self-esteem was measured on the Ziller Social Self-esteem, the Bills Index of Adjustment and Values, and the Coopersmith Self-esteem Inventory. Subjects were 93 male and 73 female students in first- and second-year psychology. Subjects generally liked their names, with middle names disliked most often. Males liked their last names significantly more than their middle names, while females liked their last names more than either their first or middle names. Attitudes toward first name were related to some Bills and Coopersmith scores, which reflect subjects' appraisal of their worthiness and their style of responding to themselves, but not to Ziller scores, which reflect self-evaluation within a social context. Attitudes toward middle name were not reliably related to any self-esteem scores. In the female sample, attitudes toward the last name showed a relationship to self-esteem in the social context; no other correlations with attitudes toward last name were significant.

With an increase in the number of international students in China, there has been a simultaneous increase in their emotional problems, such as depression, as well as the importance of their emotional well-being. This study aimed to investigate the influence of social support on depression and the mediation and moderation mechanisms of this relationship in international students. In total, 349 international students in China responded to a questionnaire survey comprising the Social Support Rating Scale, Self-rating Depression Scale, Adult Attachment Scale, and Self-Esteem Scale. The results showed that: (1) attachment closeness had a significant direct predictive effect on depression; (2) attachment closeness played a mediating role in the relationship between social support and depression; and (3) the direct effect of social support on depression and the mediating effect of attachment and closeness are regulated by self-esteem. Therefore, interventions aimed at improving the social support, attachment closeness, and self-esteem of international students in China can be effective in reducing their depressive symptoms.

The author addresses the subject of modesty, firstly by referring to an article by Alexander Lowen (IIBA Newsletter, 1994), and then an article by Umberto Galimberti, a philosopher and Jungian analyst. Lowen speaks of modesty as «natural pride”, as the expression of the degree of self-perception and self-esteem of the person. It denotes the individual’s ability to contain their feelings and therefore indicates their ability to hold a strong sexual charge. For Galimberti, the human being – who has both a body and individuality – «modesty” expresses the contrasting dialectic between the ego and their animal condition, the two dimensions that intimately constitute the person and tear him or her apart. Each dimension, in fact, hosts two subjectivities. One subjectivity that says «I”, with which we usually identify ourselves, and the other that establishes us as «officials of the species” ensuring its continuity. According to Galimberti, modesty does not limit sexuality but identifies it. The author then reflects on the social and historical aspects of modesty in Italy over the last 50 years.

Research shows that women both focus on the social aspects of jobs and rate their self-esteem on social factors, so it was hypothesized that women scoring high on a job-satisfaction questionnaire would score significantly higher on those scales of the Adjective Check List which are relevant to self-esteem than women scoring low in job-satisfaction. The results supported the hypothesis. Job-satisfied women were achievement-oriented, cooperative, tactful, social, self-confident, and comfortable with sex-appropriate roles. Job-unsatisfied women were self-critical, suffered from inferiority feelings, and displayed maladaptive tendencies. Further research was suggested.

The article outlines theoretical developments in the field of stigmatization. The stages of development of stigmatization are given: selection and «marking» of the person which differs from conditional norm; assigning it negative qualities in accordance with the existing in this culture ideas about certain features; assigning it to a certain «category» that opposes society and further reducing the social status of this person. Attention is paid to the process of self-stigmatization – a person’s awareness of the presence of a certain feature that distinguishes him from the majority, assimilation and application of myths about his «otherness», with further distancing from potential stigmatizers. This leads to a decrease in social status, self-esteem, which in turn increases stigma. Two separate surveys were conducted; one among the general population, and the other about the peculiarities of the stigmatization of stigmatized minorities’ own stigma was studied during a survey of LGBT and HIV activists. The total sample was 687, of whom 493 were the general population and 194 were members of stigmatized minorities. The display of stigmatization was investigated due to the prevalence of cyberbullying using different media channels. In total, 71 % of respondents were victims of cyberbullying (from isolated cases (49 %) to persistent harassment (4 %). The most common victims of cyberbullying are men, and among activists – HIV activists. Activists often face such acts of cyberbullying as insults in comments to news and on Twitter, threats on Facebook, intimidation on forums. Only 20 % of cyberbullying victims turned to various institutions to stop harassment.

The present study examined the factor structure and construct validity of the Children’s Loneliness Scale (CLS), a popular measure of childhood loneliness, in Belgian children. Analyses were conducted on two samples of fifth and sixth graders in Belgium, for a total of 1,069 children. A single-factor structure proved superior to alternative solutions proposed in the literature, when taking item wording into account. Construct validity was shown by substantial associations with related constructs, based on both self-reported (e.g., depressive symptoms and low social self-esteem), and peer-reported variables (e.g., victimization). Furthermore, a significant association was found between the CLS and a peer-reported measure of loneliness. Collectively, these findings provide a solid foundation for the continuing use of the CLS as a measure of childhood loneliness.
