e and Self-Esteem
Abstract: This paper inv
estigates the relationship between an individual's self-esteem and random n
egative economic shocks experienced during formative stages of the life-cyc
le. Combining individual data from parents and children within the same hou

find that negative shocks experienced during adolescence have a relevant n
egative effect on their self-esteem. We also find that these shocks have a
persistent effect that spans across generations.
