Preferred term

self-perception theory  

Definition(s)

  • Self-perception theory describes how people form new attitudes and beliefs, including those related to the self, from observing their own behavior. In 1965, Daryl Bem proposed that people deduce their own internal states, like attitudes and emotions via the same processes by which they deduce the internal states and dispositions of others.
