It was found that most preadolescents are characterized by average reactive and stable anxiety, the self-esteem of most study participants is average. Gender differences were found in the manifestation of anxiety and self-esteem in preadolescents, especially in 5th grade students. Significant indirect relation between anxiety and self-esteem in preadolescents has been demonstrated.
