Adolescence represents a critical phase in identity formation, wherein self-esteem serves as a fundamental basis for psychological development, self-confidence, and effective social functioning. External influences, such as family harmony, and internal factors, such as emotional dysregulation, are both important determinants of adolescent development. This research examines the effects of these factors on adolescent self-esteem in rural Bogor through a quantitative explanatory research design. A purposive sample of 169 students 15–18 years from two public senior high schools in Bogor Regency was collected between August and September 20252025. Data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, correlation analysis, and regression testing with SPSS version 25.0. The findings reveal that family harmony is significantly and positively associated with self-esteem, while emotional dysregulation is inversely related to self-esteem. Regression analysis further confirms family harmony as a protective factor and emotional dysregulation as a risk factor. Together, these variables explain 22.9 per cent of the variance in self-esteem, indicating that other influential factors remain outside the scope of this study.
