It seems generally accepted that public self-consciousness (PuSC) relates to increased use of self-presentation and private self-consciousness (PrSC) does not, but some researchers believe that PuSC and PrSC relate to different approaches to self-presentation. The present study aimed to profile PuSC and PrSC on self-presentation tactic use but advance previous investigations by differentiating PrSC dimensions: internal state awareness (ISA) and self-reflection (SR). We hypothesized that ISA and SR would manifest divergent self-presentation profiles and that neither profile would correspond closely with PuSC. MTurk participants (N = 298; Mage = 37.66; 61% female) first completed indices of PuSC, ISA, and SR, and then reported their past use of various self-presentation tactics. ISA and SR manifested divergent self-presentation profiles, and neither profile converged with PuSC. Specifically, ISA revealed a self-presentation profile that generally conveyed a principled and socially-potent identity; SR revealed a profile that conveyed an exploitative and opportunistic approach to identity construction; PuSC related specifically to ingratiation. In sum, PrSC is associated with self-presentation, but its dimensions reflect divergent self-presentational approaches. PuSC largely relates to tactical ingratiation and does not appear to represent a broad self-presentational orientation.
