The aims of this study were to examine the relationships between stressful life events, depression, anxiety, and children's somatic symptoms, and the moderating effect of self-concept. The measures used to assess these effects with a sample of 266 5th and 6th grade children, included Children's Somatization Inventory, Life events questionnaire, Children's Depression Inventory, Spielberger Trait Anxiety Inventory for Children, and Self-Perception Profile of Children. The results showed that anxiety, depression, and the experience of hospitalization predicted children's somatic symptoms significantly, with anxiety being the best predictor. Further analyses showed not only the significant main effect of anxiety, but also the significant interaction effects between anxiety and self-concept of physical competence and between anxiety and global self-worth. These results suggest that anxiety affects the experience of children's somatic symptoms and that self-concept moderates this process.
