abstract

Although initial research has found evidence for the importance and benefits of intellectual humility (IH), limited work has been done on developing and evaluatin g interventions aimed at increasing IH . The present research aim ed to develop and evaluate intervention s to promote IH among a student sample . Participants were placed in one of four conditions; factual writing, prospective writing, self - distancing, and a control condition. The effectiveness of each condition on each of four dependent variables – intellectual humility, tolerance, wisdom and wel l - being - was assessed. However, no significant differences existed between groups on the dependent variables. Limitations and future research directions are addressed.
