Dear colleagues
Does anyone know articles / academic papers on learning about oneself?
Academic learning is analyzed frequently focused on knowledge about the external world. Simultaneously, it practiced personal development. Also, psychological therapy facilitates learning about their own values, behaviors, attitudes and their changing. Does anyone know academic papers showing this process from the perspective of factors, conditions or mechanisms of this type of learning (learning about oneself)?
Thank for your help!
Hope attached ones are of interest to you.

I would look at the writings of Parker Palmer, books such as To Know As We Are Known and The Undivided Life. You can find his other books etc. at http://www.couragerenewal.org/resources/books/
I really like this approach that focuses on education with its roots in "educe," to draw out. In that model, education is about self knowledge.
Dear Mustafa Tekke,

Thank you for suggestions and promptitude of response. I have already requested items which are not available ResearchGate.

The following are getting a bit dated but touch on the topic of reflecting on one's self ...

Elena:
You can look at this recently published attitudinal tool for judging improvement in one's attitude in different aspects of daily life to include work situations.

Elena, there is a whole field of education dedicated to the purpose of learning about yourself and how to best connect with others called transformative learning I would advise you to read some of Patrical Cranton's work in the field, as she is extremely influential, and an instructor of mine.
Dear Debra and Anthony,
Thank you for the suggestions. We have identified some interesting ideas with yours help.
in the articles of Cranton , I found the answers to some questions (transformative learning, adult training, personal and professional development ) and new openings, including research methodology. The items of Debra inventories are too useful for my
Elena.
Hi Elena, I would recommend the work of Brendan McCormack and Tanya McCance. They developed the person centred practice framework and a significant portion of it is dedicated to knowing self.
Dear Brian,
Your unexpected answer, two years after the question was launched, is welcome. Thank you for the suggestion.
Haha! I didn't see that. RG flagged it up and I answered. Hope it helped though :)
