“…This notion of psychological time has been studied also by social psychologists in investigations concerning, for instance, self-evaluative (e.g., Schwarz & Strack, 1999;Taylor, Neter, & Wayment, 1995) and comparison processes (e.g., Albert, 1977;Suls & Mullen, 1982;Wilson & Ross, 2001), or possible selves (e.g., Markus & Nurius, 1986). This research suggests that we construct our selves with regard to the past, and the present, as well as the future (e.g., Hooker, 1992), and that we use diachronous referents as often as social referents in our comparison processes (e.g., Wilson & Ross, 2000).…”
