It has been ________ with a slew of benefits, ________ mental well-being, better stress management and enhanced job performance, the ________ write in Harvard Business Review.

In one of the studies, participants were asked to indicate how strongly they ________ statements like, “In general, I have a clear sense of who I am and what I am,” and, “It is often hard for me to make up my mind about things ________ I don’t really know what I want.”

In another study, participants who had lived abroad were randomly assigned to two groups. Half were asked to reflect on the experience of living abroad while the ________ group was asked to reflect on the ________ of living in their home country. The study found that subjects who reflected on living abroad reported higher self-concept clarity than those who reflected on living ________.

“It stands to reason,” they write, “that having a clear sense of self explains which types of career options best match one’s ________ and fulfill one’s values, thereby enabling people to be clearer and more confident about their career decisions.”
