Summary: | “Know thyself” may be indicated by a balanced high pairing of two emotional self-knowledge indicators: attention to emotions and emotional clarity. Closely associated but often evaluated separately,
emotional clarity
is consistently, inversely associated with psychopathology, while evidence regarding
attention to emotions
is less consistent. Variables of high/low
emotional clarity
and
attention to emotions
yielded four emotional self-knowledge profiles which were analyzed for associations with mental health indicators (depression and anxiety symptoms, self-esteem, self-schema, resiliency, transcendence) in
n
= 264 adolescents. Here we report regression models which show that compared with
neither
,
both high (
attention + clarity
)
show higher positive self-schema (
B
= 2.83,
p
= 0.004), more resiliency (
B
= 2.76,
p
= 0.015) and higher transcendence (
B
= 82.4,
