Alberta Journal of Educational Research, v48 n1 p88 90 Spr 2002

An ongoing study aims to differentiate functional uses of self-criticism from destructive self-criticism. Self-criticisms and responses of 22 senior undergraduates were grouped into 8 categories covering a broad variety of self-criticisms. The final portion of the study will compare the content and form of self-criticisms of individuals with or without trait vulnerabilities to depression. (TD)
