    Abstract:
    This pilot study evaluated the relationship between self-esteem, anxiety, and drug use in a nonclinical sample of 30 men, ages 16 to 43 years, who completed and returned inventories on self-esteem, trait anxiety, and drug use which they had received by mail. Analysis showed a significant negative correlation between self-esteem and drug use and a significant positive correlation between trait anxiety and drug use. Also, a significant negative correlation was found between self-esteem and trait anxiety. Implications are discussed.
