Abstract:
Previous research and theoretical considerations on potential adaptive and non-adaptive functions of internal dialogues (IDs) do not allow to clearly predict the connection between internal dialogical activity and well-being. Additionally, the study aimed to explore the role of authenticity in using IDs, their frequency and effects on well-being. The results confirmed that authenticity is positively associated with well-being. The only type of IDs that highly authentic people conduct more often than those with lower authenticity are identity dialogues. This type of IDs shows a positive link with well-being, whereas the general internal dialogical activity as well as ruminative, maladaptive and confronting IDs are negatively related to well-being. This is not the case with regard to the ruminative IDs. It transpired that in highly authentic people perspective-changing IDs are conducive to higher well-being.
