Self-esteem plays an important role in motivation, mental health, job achievement and overall life satisfaction. The study aimed to investigate the correlates of self esteem of female college students. The subjects were selected among the students attending Dongduk women's university. The results indicated that the self-esteem of the subject was positively correlated with intimate relationship with boyfriend and the adaptation to college life. However, the self-esteem was negatively correlated with witnessing parental violence and abusive relationship with parents in childhood.
