Research a journal article on self-concept and self-esteem, summarize the article, and use that information along with your course readings to respond to the following.

• How can culture, ethnicity, and race influence self-esteem and self-concept?
• How can parental divorce impact the development of self-esteem in middle childhood? Would child outcomes, including physical health and social functioning, differ depending on the level of hostility and tension between parents?
• Adolescence is often referred to as a time of increased stress. Do you believe certain periods in life are relatively stress-free or stressful? Do people of all ages experience stress? How do stressors differ by age?
