ABSTRACT : Perceived sexist events are recognized as stressors that are linked to psychological distress for those who experience such events (E. A. Klonoff & H. Landrine, 1995; J. K. Swim, 2001). In this study, personal self-esteem was examined as a moderator of the relation between perceived sexist events and psychological distress for a sample of 104 young women. Results clearly supported (a) the individual relations of frequency and appraisal of perceived sexist events and self-esteem to psychological distress and (b) the additional incremental contribution of the interaction of these variables to psychological distress. The additional variance accounted for by the interactions was substantial, ranging from 3% to 7%. As expected, self-esteem moderated the link between perceived sexist events and psychological distress such that this link was positive for participants with low self-esteem but nonsignificant for those with high self-esteem.
