Problem The following is a report of the differential relationships observed between retrospective reports of eight childhood experiences and self-derogation (SD) scores for adult subjects in five age groupings. Variability in the relationships between particular experiences and SD among the different age-groupings was to be expected for any of several reasons: social role-related variability in the evaluative significance of particular attributes (Kaplan, 1970); generational differences in evaluative standards; variability in interaction effects between earlier experiences and later circumstances associated with particular ages; etc.
