SELF-CONSCIOUSNESS, HEALTHY PERSONALITY AND SELFSYSTEM
Abstract
This paper is intended to be about the main subject of psychology and especifically about the psychology of personality in relation to the issue of self-attention. This theme constitutes basically the starting point of the different theories of objective self-awareness (e.g., Carver & Scheier, 1981; Duval & Wicklund, 1972...), and that it is one of the integral phenomenons of the " self " system (Fierro, 1996). Within the pattern of these theories it has been studied the relationship of self-consciousness with variables such as depression (Pyszczynski & Greenberg, 1985), anxiety (Dickstein et al. 1981), neuroticism (Wells & Matthews, 1994), diverse somatic symptoms (Wells, 1991), etc., forming with all them a defined pattern of relationships. In this field the studies about this subject are not very rich, especially those which are direct and explicit on the relationship taken place betwing self-attention and those variables nearer to the healthy pole of the dimension healthypsychopathological. The present work seeks to throw some light on the relationship that keeps self-consciousness with some indicators of healthy personality informing of the found results (in two correlational studies) among self-focus, personal well-being, social adaptation (direct indicators of healthy personality), self-monitoring, implicit self-esteem and selfactualization.Downloads
