Abstract: Cultural factors have been found to affect the formation and development of individuals selfesteem. Many studies in cultural psychology examined the influences of social status or interpersonal relationships on selfesteem, yet few studies in China explored either the effect of social norms and personality on selfesteem. This study aimed at exploring the indirect effects of conscientiousness on the relations between tightness and selfesteem for Chinese students. The questionnaire of the five personality for Chinese people, the questionnaire for tightnesslooseness and the Rosenberg selfesteem scale were administered to 203 university students. Results showed that both tightness and conscientiousness correlated positively with selfesteem, and conscientiousness could mediate the relationship between the tightness and selfesteem.

Key words: tightnesslooseness; selfesteem; conscientiousness; social norms
