Believing in your intuition enhances the consistency between your implicit and explicit self-esteem. This suggests people with high intuition validity integrate intuitive self-perceptions into their conscious self-views.

Area of Science:

  • Psychology
  • Social Psychology
  • Self-Perception Research

Background:

  • The relationship between implicit and explicit self-esteem is complex.
  • Individual differences in faith in intuition may influence self-esteem consistency.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To investigate if perceived validity of intuition affects the correspondence between implicit and explicit self-esteem.
  • To explore how chronic and induced faith in intuition impacts self-esteem congruence.

Main Methods:

  • Four studies were conducted using different measures of implicit self-esteem.
  • Participants' chronic faith in intuition was assessed.
  • Participants' intuition validity was experimentally manipulated.
  • Explicit self-views were measured under time pressure (state self-esteem).

Main Results:

  • Individuals with high chronic faith in intuition showed greater consistency between implicit and explicit self-esteem.
  • Low faith in intuition was associated with a negative relation between implicit and explicit self-esteem.
  • Induced belief in intuition led to greater congruence between implicit and explicit self-esteem.

Conclusions:

  • People appear to experience implicit self-esteem as intuitive evaluations.
  • High intuition validity facilitates the integration of implicit self-esteem into explicit self-views.
  • Perceived intuition validity is a key factor in aligning subconscious and conscious self-perceptions.
