Therefore, the impact of unemployment on mental health is likely to be manifest in many forma, including denigration of self-worth or self-esteem. The primary purpose of this study is to investigate the relationship between joblessness and its component parts, unemployment and dropping out of the labour force, on self-esteem using data drawn from the National Longitudinal Survey of Youth (NLSY). |
