Impression Management Techniques III: Aligning Actions

145

Self-Presentation: Self-Monitoring and Self-Handicapping

People can go to great lengths to protect their self-image and present themselves in ways that they want others to see them. Sociologist Erving Goffman presented the idea that a person is like an actor on a stage. Calling his theory dramaturgy, Goffman believed that we use “impression management” to present ourselves to others as we hope to be perceived. Each situation is a new scene, and individuals perform different roles depending on who is present (Goffman, 1959). Think about...

Self-Evaluation: Self-Enhancement and Self-Verification

Social psychologists have documented that feeling good about ourselves and maintaining positive self-esteem is a powerful motivator of human behavior (Tavris & Aronson, 2008). In the United States, members of the predominant culture typically think very highly of themselves and view themselves as good people who are above average on many desirable traits (Ehrlinger, Gilovich, & Ross, 2005). Often, our behavior, attitudes, and beliefs are affected when we experience a threat to our...

Introspection01:29

Introspection

357
Introspection, long upheld as a reliable route to self-knowledge, involves examining one's thoughts, emotions, and mental processes. It underpins many psychological practices, from mindfulness meditation to psychotherapy and self-help strategies. However, empirical evidence challenges the accuracy of introspection as a means of understanding oneself.Limitations of Introspective InsightSeminal work by Nisbett and Wilson demonstrated that individuals are frequently unaware of the true causes...

Strategies of Self-Presentation II: Self-Verification

213
Self-verification is a fundamental psychological drive wherein individuals seek affirmation of their self-concept from others, striving for consistency between their internal self-view and external perceptions. This drive operates even when the self-concept is negative, influencing interpersonal behavior and feedback preferences in complex and often counterintuitive ways. Unlike the self-enhancement motive, which seeks positive evaluations, self-verification prioritizes coherence and...

Self-Discrepancy Theory

One influential perspective on what motivates people's behavior is detailed in Tory Higgin's self-discrepancy theory (Higgins, 1987). He proposed that people hold disagreeing internal representations of themselves that lead to different emotional states.

Area of Science:

  • Bibliometrics
  • Scientific publishing
  • Research integrity

Background:

  • Traditional responses to publication misconduct involve penalties, potentially hindering retractions.
  • Systemic obstacles and collusion can impede the retraction of fraudulent publications.
  • Encouraging self-retraction by waiving punishments is an underexplored strategy to refine scientific discourse.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To propose a novel model, Hierarchical Self-Retraction Forgiveness (HSRF), to facilitate self-retraction of publications involving misconduct.
  • To mitigate systemic barriers that prevent authors and institutions from retracting fraudulent research.
  • To foster a more transparent and accurate scientific record by reducing fear of penalties.

Main Methods:

  • Development of the Hierarchical Self-Retraction Forgiveness (HSRF) model.
  • Integration of safeguards to prevent exploitation of the forgiveness policy.
  • Conceptual framework addressing authors, institutions, and higher supporting systems.

Main Results:

  • The HSRF model provides a framework for leniency in cases of self-reported misconduct.
  • Alleviating reputational and institutional concerns can incentivize self-retraction.
  • Safeguards are incorporated to ensure the model's responsible application.

Conclusions:

  • The HSRF model offers a potential solution to accelerate the refinement of scientific discourse.
  • Encouraging self-retraction through forgiveness can enhance research integrity and reduce fraudulent publications.
  • Continuous dialogue and refinement are recommended for optimal effectiveness of the HSRF model.
