Self-enhancement is a positive bias in self-perception, which may imply error. However, conventional measures of self-enhancement are difference scores that do not distinguish a positive bias from a self-enhancement error, that is, they fail to identify those individuals who hold an irrationally or inaccurately positive view of themselves. We propose 2

The present research posited that Westerners and Easterners use different tactics to achieve the same goal: positive self-regard.

People self-enhance on dimensions central of their self-concept. Morality is a highly central dimension for most, and so moral self-enhancement is pervasive. It can take various forms. For example, people regard themselves as superior to their peers on moral traits, more so than other central traits, and claim that they are more likely than their peers

Self-enhancement and belief perseverance
Journal of Experimental Social Psychology, 2008Abstract Belief perseverance—the tendency to make use of invalidated information—is one of social psychology’s most reliable phenomena. Virtually all of the explanations proffered for the effect, as well as the conditions that delimit it, involve the way people think about or explain the discredited feedback.

Self-enhancement of LiNbO3 holograms
Journal of Applied Physics, 1973Self-enhancement (an increase in diffraction efficiency upon readout with a single laser beam) is reported for iron-doped LiNbO3 holograms which have not been ``fixed'' (crystal heated to 100°C during or after recording). The rate of change for self-enhancement was observed to be equal to and opposite in sign with the rate of erasure observed in the ...
