Abstract
Ss were asked to discuss certain characteristics of themselves in a diagnostic interview setting. Experimental Ss were provided sham GSR feedback on the insightfulness of their self-descriptions. The feedback was actually controlled by the interviewer. Experimental Ss were rewarded for positive and punished for negative self-describing. Control Ss received no feedback. Experimental Ss were found to be reliably higher than controls in the proportion of positive self-descriptions during the interview and in favorable self-evaluations on a post-test measure of generalization.
