Running head: STATE HUMILITY CONCEPTUAL VALIDATION 1 State Humility: Measurement, Conceptual Validation, and Intrapersonal Processes Short title: STATE HUMILITY CONCEPTUAL VALIDATION
نویسندگان
چکیده
Humility is a core psychological process theoretically marked by low self-focus, secure identity, and balanced awareness of strengths and weaknesses. We began with a consensual definition of humility before theoretically unpacking it. First, using 25 samples and 2,622 adults, we developed the Brief State Humility Scale, which demonstrates strong construct validity and good reliability, is sensitive to experimental manipulation, and is uncorrelated with social desirability. Second, using this measure, we replicated previously reported relationships involving interpersonal processes; revealed links between state humility and intrapersonal processes (e.g., affect, creativity, and personality); and demonstrated key theoretical differences between state humility and modesty. This framework highlights new avenues for humility research and suggests how humility plays a critical role in emotional experience. (119 words)

Psychological inquiry into humility has advanced considerably over the past decade, yet this literature suffers from two notable limitations. First, there is no clear consensus among researchers about what humility is, and conceptualizations vary considerably across studies. Second, researchers have uniformly operationalized humility as a positive, socially desirable construct, while dismissing...
