摘要

This paper examines the relationship between self-esteem and women’s health outcomes in China, highlighting self-esteem as a key psychological factor. Using two nationally representative datasets—the China Family Panel Studies (CFPS) and the National Survey on Women’s Social Status (NSWSS)—the study applies a range of econometric techniques, including matching and weighting methods, and instrumental variable approaches, to address potential endogeneity concerns. The results consistently show that higher self-esteem is associated with better general health, fewer chronic diseases, and improved mental well-being among women. These findings underscore the importance of incorporating self-esteem into women’s health research and offer valuable insights for policies aimed at improving women’s well-being.
