Overview

Research validates and compares four self-report scales of intellectual humility in a German sample, suggesting implications for addressing affective polarization.

Key Points

  • MAIN FINDING: The study validated four self-report scales measuring intellectual humility in a representative German sample.
  • KEY EVIDENCE: The SIHS scale demonstrated the best incremental validity in predicting lower affective polarization towards outgroups.
  • APPROACH: Items from three established scales were translated and validated against expert ratings and survey data from 698 participants.
  • SIGNIFICANCE: This research addresses the lack of validated intellectual humility measures in German and their potential role in reducing societal conflicts.
