Abstract
22 adolescents, 8 boys and 14 girls, aged 12 through 18 yr., who were taking part in a youth development program, participated in the study done to determine the relationships among self-esteem, depression, and alcohol consumption. Scores on self-esteem correlated significantly with both of those on depression and alcohol consumption, whereas nonsignificant correlations were observed between scores on depression and alcohol consumption.Keywords
