Summary/Abstract: The purpose of this research was to measure the relationships among late adolescents' self-esteem, peer and parents relations. The subjects were 199 students from 9th and 11th grades. Rosenberg's self-esteem scale, Index of peer relations and Child's attitude toward mother and father scales was used in the investigation. The analysis of the results showed a significant positive correlation between self-esteem, and peer relations and, for girls only, a significant positive correlation between self-esteem and parents relations. The results indicated that the girls had lower levels of self-esteem than boys did. There was found significantly stronger connection between self-esteem and peer relations than between self-esteem and parents relations for boys only. The implications for future investigations were discussed.
