Lead[edit]

The opening sentence of the lead seems to be confusing and could be worked on to help provide additional clarification. Jfer12 (talk) 06:06, 27 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I changed it up a little but would be happy to take any feedback! Rdatwan1 (talk) 18:09, 27 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Untitled[edit]

There is a different, more general approach with similar name presented by Fodor in his book Self-expansion. www.psy2.org It introduces also the notion of Self-narrowing. The model is described on http://www.psy2.org/index.php?n=Psy2.Fipp

There might be worth considering mentioning these information in the article and adding the book as a reference.

Added a couple of sentences with citations to Measuring Inclusion of the Other in the Self section. This expands the section to include additional/adapted measures of the IOS based on the traditional IOS scale including the Continuous IOS applet^[1] and the Inclusion of Community in the Self Scale.^[2] Glorytohypnotoad (talk) 20:26, 13 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Added a small section to reflect recent developments in self-expansion research, particularly in regards to extending it beyond the social sphere. Glorytohypnotoad (talk) 17:49, 26 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

A number of sentences are intriguing but do not have accompanying citations (for example, "It has been suggested that when a person is socially stable, self-expansion via an outgroup member is most likely to be successful"). This is perhaps true, but it would greatly benefit readers if the source from which this was taken was referenced. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Equilibriation (talk • contribs) 10:23, 16 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Added a reference to the Self-expansion Motivation section to address this comment by Equilibriation. ^[3] Glorytohypnotoad (talk) 20:52, 13 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Not only would this article benefit from references accompanying some of the sentences, but more secondary and tertiary sources are needed as well. This article appears to have most of its references come from empirical research/primary sources. Reids0124 (talk) 02:28, 5 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
