Contrary to research investigating correlations between self-esteem and relationship status, there is no statistically significant correlation between the two variables. By examining the dependence between relationship status and self-esteem scores, results revealed those in romantic relationships have no statistically significant differences in low self-esteem (35.9%) and combined medium-high self-esteem (48.2%).
