Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book underscores the importance of individual differences in the ability to accurately report on oneself. The author distinguishes between self-presentation and self-understanding and demonstrates how self-presentation phenomena relate to the subject's willingness to accurately self-report. The author also discusses the relationship between self-understanding and the accuracy of self-reported behavioral expectations, arguing that general self-understanding is a potentially important individual difference variable which has been neglected in the literature. The book provides evidence that while behavioral expectation and behavioral intention may have similar predictive accuracy for volitional behaviors, behavioral expectation is adequate while behavioral intention may be inadequate for prediction of the accomplishment of behavioral goals. Ultimately, this book offers valuable insights into the complex relationship between self-understanding and behavior, highlighting the need for further research on the topic.
