早期的研究表明，内省的成果可能会促进错误和误解，这项研究表明，思考自我有时可能会促进自我洞察力。有机会反思自己的参与者特别倾向于通过以下方式显示自我洞察力：（a）将确认自己自我观点的反馈评定为自我描述（实验1和3），（B）以与朋友对自己的评价相匹配的方式评定自己（实验2），以及（c）选择自我验证的互动伙伴，而不是过于有利的互动伙伴（实验4）。这些影响被缓和的性质的内省活动（实验3）和其持续时间（实验4）。这些研究结果的自我认识的性质和世界的人构建自己周围的影响进行了讨论。
Whereas earlier research suggests that the fruits of introspection may promote error and misperception, this research suggests that thinking about the self may sometimes foster self-insight. Participants who had opportunity to reflect on themselves were particularly inclined to display self-insight by (a) rating feedback that confirmed their self-views as self-descriptive (Experiments 1 and 3), (b) rating themselves in ways that matched their friends' appraisals of them (Experiment 2), and (c) choosing a self-verifying interaction partner rather than an overly favorable one (Experiment 4). These effects were moderated by the nature of the introspective activity (Experiment 3) and by its duration (Experiment 4). Implications of these findings for the nature of self-knowledge and the worlds people construct around themselves are discussed.
