I got a feedback from a reviewer on my article that I should not mix up the different concepts of mindsets, implicit theories, self-beliefs, and lay theories. To me and before seeing his comment, they are all referring to the same concept. But it seems that the recent developments in the field has made a clear difference between each two of these concepts. He, the reviewer, has pointed to the following article which I can't reach:
Lüftenegger, M., & Chen, J. A. (2017). Conceptual Issues and Assessment of Implicit Theories. Zeitschrift Für Psychologie, 225(2), 99–106. https://doi.org/10.1027/2151-2604/a000286
I hope anyone can clarify the differences for me or help me to access the full text of the paper mentioned.
Thanks!
Hello Tahani,
I thought they are referring to the same concept, so it would be interesting to know if there are any theoretical or practical differences among those concepts. I read Carol Dweck's (2006) book but I think the difference is not clearly stated.
Hope that other researchers help you, and me, to know the distinction.
