6 5. discuss sex differences in mortality rates across the life span among Canadians. 4. define the term morbidity paradox.

7 Research has revealed a relatively small sex difference in global self-esteem: Are there sex differences in self-esteem? (continued)

8  Kling, 1999 Conducted a meta-analysis of 184 papers published between : 216 effect sizes, 97,121 participants. Examined the influence of sex and age on global self-esteem. Found an overall effect size of.21.

12 Emergence of Sex Differences in Global Self- Esteem (Heaven & Ciarrochi, 2008)

13 Explanations for the lower levels of global self-esteem among females than males: 1.Gender roles. 2. Imbalances in cross-sex interactions in childhood. 3. Differential treatment of boys and girls in school.

14 5. Pervasive violence against girls and women. 4. Differential athletic participation by boys and girls. 6. Cultural emphasis on appearance among females: Body dissatisfaction is so common among females that it has been termed a “normative discontent” (Rodin et al., 1985).

15 Nevertheless, the relatively small sex difference in global self-esteem has led some theorists to caution against excessive focus upon it. This may: 2. Lead to self-fulfilling prophecies among females: 1. Result in neglect of the challenges to self-esteem that are experienced by boys and men. Females obtain higher scores than males on some domain-specific forms of self-esteem:

17 Are there sex differences in mortality and morbidity? Although males have higher mortality rates than females, females have higher morbidity rates than males.

18 1.Mortality  More males are conceived than females: (100 females: males; Stillion, 1995).  However, birth rates (100 females:105 males) suggest that male fetuses are more likely to die than female fetuses (Matthews & Hamilton, 2005).  After birth, death rates are higher for males than females at all ages, with the exception of >85 years.
