• Self-compassion versus global self-esteem: two different ways of relating to oneself. (2009, background): “Contingencies of self-worth (Crocker et al., 2003): Whereas Paradise and Kernis’s (1999) measure of Contingent Self-Esteem assesses global contingency, this measure distinguishes domains of contingency on which people base their self-worth.”
• Contingencies of Self-Worth and Appearance Concerns (2012, methodology): “Validity of the CSW subscales has been supported by its correlation with the Rosenberg Self-Esteem scale, Collective Self-Esteem scale, the Narcissistic Personality Inventory, and the Big Five Inventory (Crocker et al., 2003).”
• How Investment in Gender Ideals Affects Well-Being: The Role of External Contingencies of Self-Worth (2005, methodology): “The CSWS subscales have good test-retest reliability and convergent and divergent validity with other measures and predict various behaviors (Crocker et al., 2003).”
• Narcissism and Self-Esteem Reactivity: The Role of Negative Achievement Events (2010, result): “These results depict a somewhat different pattern concerning the self-esteem reactivity of narcissists than has been found in previous studies concerning contingent self-esteem (Crocker et al., 2003; Zeigler-Hill, Clark, et al., 2008).”
• The Social Development of Contingent Self-Worth in Sexual Minority Young Men: An Empirical Investigation of the “Best Little Boy in the World” Hypothesis (2013, methodology): “The Contingent SelfWorth Scale (Crocker et al., 2003) assesses the degree to which college students base their self-esteem on seven life domains: academic competence, appearance, competition, virtue, God’s love, family support, and others’ approval.”
