Not wholly, but partially. It doesn't matter much if you believe in yourself when few others do. The social group is more verifying your self-esteem.

I'd say it's easier to rely on external validation in many cultures because anything not well-defined is hard to teach. Poorly defined subjective experiences are even harder.
