چکیده
This study explored the associations between adolescents’ assertive behaviour, psychological well-being and self-esteem. The sample consisted of 1023 students (14.9±0.51; 47.6% boys). Two dimensions of the Scale for Interpersonal Behaviour (distress and performance), two factors of the General Health Questionnaire-12 (depression/anxiety and social dysfunction) and two factors of the Rosenberg Self-esteem Scale (positive self-esteem and negative self-esteem) were used; data were analysed with stepwise linear regression. It was found that (1) the more anxious respondents felt in assertive situations, the less frequently they engaged in these situations; and that (2) both dimensions of assertiveness were associated with psychological well-being and self-esteem.
