Objectives：This study aimed to investigate the relationship between the level of ego-resilience and depression, anxiety, conduct problems and self-esteem in a large sample of Korean adolescents.

Subjects were classified into three high, intermediate and low ER group according to total ER scale scores.
Results：Total ER scores was positively correlated with total SES scores and negatively correlated with total BDI, BAI, and conduct problem scores. Using analysis ANOVA(analysis and variance) and post hoc test, significant mean differences in BDI, BAI, SES and conduct problem scores were observed among the three groups. High ER group showed that SES scores were significantly higher and BDI, BAI and conduct problem scores were significantly lower than that observed in middle and lower ER group. Using multiple regression analysis, the results showed that depression, low self-esteem were significant factors affecting ego-resilience in adolescents.
Conclusion：Our findings indicate that depression, anxiety, behavioral problem such as conduct problems and low self-steem are associated with low ego-resilience.
