The purpose of this study is to explore the variables that contribute to an individual's psychological wellness and to empirically test the relationship between self-differentiation, self-esteem, resilience, and musical functioning.The hypotheses propose that: (1)self-differentiation predicts self-esteem; (2)resilience mediates the relationship between self-differentiation and self-esteem; (3)musical functioning moderates the relationship between self-differentiation and resilience; and (4)the indirect effect of self-differentiation on self-esteem via resilience is moderated by musical functioning.To test these hypotheses, a self-report survey was administered to 531 adult males and females enrolled in a cyber university, descriptive statistics and correlation analyses were performed using SPSS, and mediation and moderation effects were tested using Hayes' bootstrap analysis.The results showed that self-differentiation had a positive effect on self-esteem, and resilience mediated this relationship.In addition, music functioning moderated the relationship between self-differentiation and resilience, strengthening the effect.
