“…For example, Talwar and Lee (2002) presented Canadian children with a condition that was closely related to our baseline condition, and a substantial majority told white lies. Other manipulations have been found to have similar effects on lying rates in Eastern and Western samples, such as ones designed to promote self-awareness (Bender, O'Connor, & Evans, 2018;Ding et al, 2019;Ross, Anderson, & Campbell, 2011), which is also consistent with the idea that our findings are likely to generalize across cultures.…”

Starting in early childhood, children are socialized to be honest. However, they are also expected to avoid telling the truth in sensitive situations if doing so could be seen as inappropriate or impolite. Across two studies (total N = 358), the reasoning of 3‐ to 5‐year‐old children in such a scenario was investigated by manipulating whether the information in question would be helpful to the recipient. The studies used a reverse rouge paradigm, in which a confederate with a highly salient red mark on her nose asked children whether she looked okay prior to having her picture taken. In Study 1, children tended to tell the truth only if they were able to observe that the mark was temporary and the confederate did not know it was there. In Study 2, children tended to tell the truth only if they were able to observe that the mark could be concealed with makeup. These findings show that for children as young as age 3, decisions about whether to tell the truth are influenced by the likelihood that the information would be helpful to the recipient.

“…Moreover, Hanem, Ahmad, and Yoser suggested that self-awareness training positively increases the level of self-efficacy as well as nursing efficiency in posttest compared to pretest (Hanem, Ahmad, & Yoser, 2011). Similar results were also reported by Ross, Anderson and Campbell (2011) and Molnar, Eby, Kartje and Louis (2010).…”

Objective: Self-awareness is the ability to accurately perceive the aspects of our personality, behavior, emotions, and motivations. It is the foundation of all kinds of emotional restraints. Moreover, the feeling of having control over everything is associated with improved mental health. Self-awareness skills are characterized as a set of coping and self-management skills that increase self-efficacy. Methods:This semi-experimental randomized controlled study was conducted on 80 individuals divided into an intervention and a control group. All 80 subjects were selected from 150 eligible orphaned adolescents under the coverage of Imam Khomeini Relief Foundation. The educational intervention was conducted through five 120-minute sessions. simple random sampling and were divided into two groups using balanced block randomization The data were collected using selfawareness and self-efficacy questionnaires and then were analyzed by SPSS version 19. Results:The results showed a significant difference between the 2 groups regarding self-efficacy and self-awareness scores before and then 1 and 6 weeks after the intervention (P<0.001). The intervention group's mean(SD) scores of self-awareness were 27.00(2.97), 34.1(2.09), and 34.55(2.04) in the pretest, first posttest (1 week after the intervention), and second posttest (6 weeks after the intervention), respectively. Also, the intervention group's mean(SD) scores of self-efficacy were 126. 00(19.56), 164.55(19.56), and 173.66(15.84) in the pretest, first posttest, and second posttest, respectively. Conclusion:The findings of this study showed that self-awareness training directly increased selfawareness skills and self-efficacy. Thus, self-awareness skills training with painting approach is effective in promoting self-awareness and self-efficacy among adolescents.

“…Contributing to broader gap in the literature concerning the functional development of self beyond mirror self-recognition (Ross, 2017;Ross, Anderson, & Campbell, 2011b;Ross et al, 2011aRoss et al, , 2017, the current study presents novel empirical evidence of a relation between autobiographical memory and the self-concept. Pioneering the empirical application of a robust source-based SRE in 3-to 6-year-old children (Cunningham et al, 2014;Ross et al, 2011a), we demonstrate for the first time that the volume and specificity of children's autobiographical memories is predicted by both the volume of their self-knowledge, and their capacity for self-source monitoring within both physical and cognitive SRE paradigms.…”

The Me in Memory: The Role of the Self in Autobiographical Memory Development

This article tests the hypothesis that self‐development plays a role in the offset of childhood amnesia; assessing the importance of both the capacity to anchor a memory to the self‐concept, and the strength of the self‐concept as an anchor. This research demonstrates for the first time that the volume of 3‐ to 6‐year old's specific autobiographical memories is predicted by both the volume of their self‐knowledge, and their capacity for self‐source monitoring within self‐referencing paradigms (N = 186). Moreover, there is a bidirectional relation between self and memory, such that autobiographical memory mediates the link between self‐source monitoring and self‐knowledge. These predictive relations suggest that the self‐memory system is active in early childhood.
