RANDOMIZED CONTROLLED TRIAL OF INTERVENTIONS TO PROMOTE INTELLECTUAL HUMILITY

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.
