The unique perspective of the self: Accuracy and bias in self-perception.
Robins, Richard Whitney.

The unique perspective of the self: Accuracy and bias in self-perception. - 103 p.

Chair: Oliver P. John.

Thesis (Ph.D.)--University of California, Berkeley, 1995.

Two longstanding issues have dominated research on the accuracy of self-perception: How can accuracy be evaluated in the absence of an absolute standard? and, which psychological processes promote accurate self-perception? Two conceptual frameworks were developed to address these issues. The first classifies criteria used to evaluate accuracy into six conceptual categories: reality, social consensus, functional/pragmatic, normative models, information-processing, and internal consistence. Recommendations are made for addressing criterion issues in accuracy research.Subjects--Topical Terms:

520 $a Two longstanding issues have dominated research on the accuracy of self-perception: How can accuracy be evaluated in the absence of an absolute standard? and, which psychological processes promote accurate self-perception? Two conceptual frameworks were developed to address these issues. The first classifies criteria used to evaluate accuracy into six conceptual categories: reality, social consensus, functional/pragmatic, normative models, information-processing, and internal consistence. Recommendations are made for addressing criterion issues in accuracy research.
520 $a The second framework describes four theoretical perspectives on the self-perception process, each captured by a metaphor: The Scientist, The Consistency Seeker, The Politician, and The Egotist. The metaphors are differentiated in terms of: the central motive driving self-perception, how information is processed, the role of affect, and individual differences. Together, the four metaphors provide a unified framework for organizing the various processes involved in self-perception.
520 $a Each metaphor suggests a number of situational and individual-differences factors that may influence accuracy and bias. The present research focused on two of these: a situational factor related to perceptual-informational processes (the visual perspective from which individuals perceive themselves) and a personality factor related to motivational processes (narcissism). Hypotheses were derived from the Scientist and Egoist metaphors and tested in two studies.
520 $a Study 1 showed that narcissistic individuals seek out and enjoy focusing attention on themselves because it fuels their excessive self-admiration, suggesting that narcissistic individuals do not experience the self-focused state as aversive, as self-awareness theory would predict.
520 $a Study 2 examined self-perception bias as a function of visual perspective (manipulated via videotape) and narcissism. Three major findings emerged. First, on average, subjects evaluated themselves more positively than was justified by three independent criteria. Second, people with unrealistically positive self-evaluations tended to be narcissistic, rather than psychologically well-adjusted as has been claimed. Third, narcissistic individuals self-enhanced even more in the self-focused condition, whereas non-narcissistic individuals self-enhanced even less. This person-situation interaction shows that a personality variable--narcissism--influences the way individuals respond to the situational manipulation--visual perspective. The findings were generally consistent with the Egoist metaphor, and provide insights into the conditions under which self-perceptions are inaccurate and positively biased.
