| Abstract Text | Morality scandals emphasise the necessity to establish ethical catalysts to diminish immoral behaviour. This thesis uncovers possible impacts of mirror and publicity contemplation ques-tions on multiple awareness types to enhance self-regulation and mitigate cognitive motiva-tional biases. Leveraging self-regulation and self-theories, this thesis argues that contemplative questions enhance accessibility to discrepancies, raise emotional discomfort and motivate self-alignment. Mirror questions are suggested to foster objective and private self-awareness, acting as amplifying tools for individuals to examine their private self-image, while publicity questions stimulate impression management and positive self-presentation by increasing public self-awareness. Future research approaches involve empirical validation of these theoretical in-sights. |
