self-serving bias

The self-serving bias can be found in several aspects of the workplace.

This is related to the self-serving bias observed by social psychologists.

Retrospective performance outcomes can be used in investigation of the self-serving bias.

Nor is any one of them free of potentially self-serving bias.

Self-serving bias has been shown to cancel the Forer effect.

Individuals have been shown to exhibit the self-serving bias in regard to sports outcomes.

Evidence for outcome influenced motivation is illustrated by research on self-serving bias.

Impasse may also arise if parties suffer from self-serving bias.

Clinically depressed patients tend to show less of a self-serving bias than individuals in the general population.

The self-serving bias has been thought of as a means of self-esteem maintenance.

According to the self-serving bias, subjects accept positive attributes about themselves while rejecting negative ones.

Whether the self-serving bias is exhibited may depend on interpersonal closeness.

Researchers claim that this may be due to the actor-observer role differences in the self-serving bias.

This may reflect the operation of the self-serving bias refracted through social identification.

These attributions are assessed by the researchers to determine implications for the self-serving bias.

Studies have shown a slight discrepancy in males' and females' use of the self-serving bias.

This is evidence that men may exhibit the self-serving bias more than women, although the study did not look at positive interaction attributions.

The study concluded that the self-serving bias is powerful enough to cancel out the usual Forer effect.

Egocentrism in groups: self-serving biases or logical information processing?

Two types of motivation affect the self-serving bias: self-enhancement and self-presentation.

Differential attribution style at different ages indicates that the self-serving bias may be less likely in older adults.

This is further reinforced by research showing that as self-threat increases, people are more likely to exhibit a self-serving bias.

Egocentrism is therefore a less overtly self-serving bias.

Investigations of the self-serving bias in the laboratory differ depending on the experimental goals, but have basic fundamental aspects.
