2002 meta-analysis by Twenge and Crocker in Psychological Bulletin (Vol. 128, No. 3) claiming blacks mog everyone in self-esteem. Effect size d=0.19 vs whites. They reviewed 712 studies, so it's not some small-sample
Key takeaways
TLDR-Blacks have highest self esteem and confidence while white and Asians have some of the lowest. This is because of blacks grow up in ghettos and develop a coping mechanism resulting in 0 self awareness and self reflection so they do not try to find a basis or reason for their pride while whites try to find a basis and a reason for their self pride. Asian cultures encourage deep introspection and self reflection of themselves resulting in feelings of inadequacies, doubting ones abilities and hurting their self image
Key takeaways
Blacks score higher than Whites on self-esteem measures (d = 0.19), Hispanic (d = -0.09), Asian (d = -0.30), and American Indian (d = -0.21) groups."
Black children, adolescents, and adults consistently scored higher than Whites on measures of global self-esteem across all levels of socioeconomic status.
Blacks maintain higher self-esteem than Whites or Hispanics into their 30s.
This finding aligns with other research, such as a 2000 meta-analysis by Bernadette Gray-Little and Adam R. Hafdahl, which also confirmed higher average self-esteem among Black adolescents and adults compared to Whites, based on large-scale surveys like Monitoring the Future. For instance, data from over 7,000 U.S. young adults (1994-2008) showed Black individuals maintaining higher self-esteem into their 30s outpacing both Whites and Hispanics. patterns hold despite systemic challenge potentially due to stronger in-group protective factors like racial socialization and cultureFactors such as racial socialization and strong in-group identification may protect Black self-esteem
