The associations of self-awareness with situations and their impact on attribution
Abstract
The self-awareness theory (CF) developed by Zaborowski makes a distinction between self-awareness content and its processing forms or modes. The content is divided into external and internal one, and can be processed in any of four self-awareness forms: individual, defensive, outer and reflective. Self-awareness operates in a dynamical way, and is functional with respect to personality and external conditions. The forms of self-awareness organize, order and integrate the self--awareness content and in doing so they influence behavior. This paper shows the relationships between the CF theory (reflective, individual, external form) and attribution.
